Heart of Darkness

In den Kulissen der Pariser Oper geht ein Phantom um. Geschickt verbirgt es sich den Blicken der Menschen, und doch nimmt es Einfluss auf das Bühnengeschehen, denn dank seiner Hilfe wird die Sängerin Christine Daée zum Star des Ensembles. Als das abstoßend hässliche Phantom sich ihr offenbart, kommt erst ein großes Erschrecken und bald darauf die Liebe ins Spiel - und löst eine komisch-turbulente Lawine von Ereignissen aus. Auf Leroux' Roman gründet mit Andrew Lloyd Webbers 'Phantom der Oper' das erfolgreichste Musical der Welt.
