BWW Reviews: See the Phenomenon THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at the Hippodrome

It seems like only yesterday I saw the original Broadway cast of Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera, but it was 22 years ago when it garnered seven 1988 Tony Awards including Best Musical. The first viewing of this phenomenon will almost always never be forgotten. This is such a classic, the Playbill front cover doesn't have the name of the show, just the show's logo, a mask.
