Ovation Theatre is excited to present the first community production of "The Phantom of the Opera" in the North County San Diego area. Based on the 1910 horror novel by Gaston Leroux, Broadway's "The Phantom of the Opera" is a thrilling and romantic account of the legendary Phantom, a musical genius who dwells deep beneath a majestic opera house in Paris. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s score soars with such famous tunes as “Think of Me,” “All I Ask of You,” “The Music of the Night,” and the title song, “The Phantom of the Opera.” With a record breaking Broadway run, Phantom has become a cultural tour de force, and one of the most successful musicals of all time.
