Thirteen musicians in the orchestra have been on the job since day one. But in the orchestra pit, things are different.
Sarah Brightman and the other original stars of Phantom of the Opera are long gone. The pit orchestra is still playing the same notes, night after night. It surpassed Cats more than two years ago, when it reached its 7,486th performance.Īndrew Lloyd Webber's show, about a disfigured genius who operates from the bowels of an opera house, still plays eight times a week at the Majestic Theatre, on West 44th Street, where it opened in 1988. The Phantom of the Opera is the longest-running musical on Broadway, ever.
Howard McGillin (as the Phantom) and Jennifer Hope Wills (as Christine) share a moment in Phantom of the Opera, Broadway's longest-running musical.
