The Phantom of the Opera to Launch New North American Tour in 2025

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s iconic musical, The Phantom of the Opera, will embark on a new multi-year North American tour beginning in November 2025.

Produced by Cameron Mackintosh (Les Misérables, Mary Poppins, Miss Saigon), the tour will feature the reimagined London production that has been captivating audiences at His Majesty’s Theatre in the West End since its reopening in 2021. The North American tour opens at the Hippodrome Theatre in Baltimore, MD, with additional cities and casting details to be announced at a later date.

This production brings Maria Björnson’s iconic original design to life under the direction of Seth Sklar-Heyn, building on Harold Prince’s celebrated original direction, with choreography by Gillian Lynne, recreated by Chrissie Cartwright.

Expressing his excitement, Cameron Mackintosh shared, “I’m delighted to bring Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom back to thrill American audiences. After its record-breaking Broadway run, this refreshed production—infused with new creative energy—was rapturously received in London. A year from now, when our chandelier rises, you’ll once again be swept away by Phantom in all its glory!”

Andrew Lloyd Webber added, “Phantom is about love, passion, and live theatre. Every time that chandelier comes alive, it’s magic. While Hal, Gillie, and Maria are no longer with us, they live on in the show we created. I’m thrilled to bring this very special production back to North America.”

Ron Legler, president of Baltimore’s France-Merrick Performing Arts Center, remarked, “Phantom was the first mega-musical I worked on over 30 years ago. To host its new tour at the Hippodrome is a true honor and a full-circle moment. Our audiences are in for an unforgettable experience.”

Since its 1986 debut, The Phantom of the Opera has enchanted over 160 million people in 47 countries with its haunting story and timeless music, including “The Music of the Night,” “All I Ask of You,” and the iconic title song. It follows the tragic tale of the masked Phantom, a musical genius who becomes infatuated with the young soprano Christine, leading to a gripping story of obsession, passion, and heartbreak.

Produced by Cameron Mackintosh and The Really Useful Group Ltd., The Phantom of the Opera remains one of the world’s most successful musicals. After an unprecedented 35-year Broadway run with 13,981 performances, the original New York production closed in 2023, setting a historic record. The London production continues to run at His Majesty’s Theatre, currently booking through 27 September 2025.
