Nick Pitera, known for his one-man Youtube medleys, has released a new video that is a medley of hits from the longest-running Broadway show, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. Check out the video!
Pitera writes: "I am such a huge PHANTOM fan. Andrew Lloyd Webber is a genius! This is my attempt at paying tribute to such a great piece of musical history!"
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA became the longest-running show in Broadway history on January 9, 2006 with its 7,486th performance (surpassing the previous record-holder CATS, also by Andrew Lloyd Webber and also produced by Cameron Mackintosh). Incredibly, since breaking that record, PHANTOM has played both an additional seven years and nearly 3,000 performances, which by itself would be a smash hit run for a Broadway musical. It has just become the first show to celebrate 25 years--an unprecedented milestone in Broadway history--on January 26, 2013.
