In October 2010 the show celebrated its 25th Anniversary with a spectacular staging at London's Royal Albert Hall which was broadcast live to cinemas around the world by Universal Pictures and in October 2016 will have played 12,500 performances in London. THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA became the longest running show in Broadway history on 9 January 2006, surpassing the previous record holder, Cameron Mackintosh's production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Cats" and on 26 January 2013 celebrated an amazing 25 years on Broadway.

THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA has won over 50 major theatre awards, including three Olivier Awards in the West End and seven Tonys on Broadway. It was the winner of the Olivier Audience Award, voted by the public, in the 2016 Laurence Olivier Awards.
