Descriptions of the characters
Style:
English pantomime - a fantastic tale (in this case based on the gothic horror story 'The Phantom of the Opera') told with songs, jokes, puns and slapstick.
Synopsis:
Mysterious goings-on at the Paris Opera house - the new owner discovers that her premises are threatened with closure by villainous English Lord, Frank Lee, that she is under perpetual scrutiny from a Health and Safety inspector and that the Opera House is haunted by the mysterious Phantom, who seems to be giving singing lessons to Christine, a newcomer who has attracted the attention of the wealthy patron, Raoul. Not only that, but the owner is under siege from a stream of composers who want to pitch ideas for new shows to her (some of which might sound a little familiar) and, what's more, a gold statue has gone missing from the roof. Can Raoul save Christine from the Phantom? Can anyone save the Opera House from Frank?
