Phantom Opera
How long is a live production of the Phantom of the Opera?

I'm looking into seeing the Phantom of the Opera at the Cadillac Palace Theatre in Chicago, Ill. Does anyone have any idea how long the show will be? I need to know so I can figure out transportation.

Approx. 3 hours. They may start late or have a longer intermission than a typical 15 minutes. Also account for the time it takes people to leave the theatre. Calling the box office or checking the website may be helpful because they can give you the running time of the musical.

How accurate is The Phantom of the Opera?

I have a few questions about the historical accuracy of the show Phantom of the Opera. Did the opera actors actually live inside the opera house? And are there actual catacombs beneath opera houses?
Please post any sources you may have.
Thanks!!

Le Opera Granier is a real opera house in Paris. It was opened in 1875 and has underground waterways.

If you do a search on Youtube, there is an interview of Emmy having visited the opera house and getting to go underground.

The book I have says that Leroux was obsessed with detail and wanted to make his writing as accurate as possible.

What's left to be said about Andrew Lloyd Webber's adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera a decade after its premiere? That it's maddeningly ubiquitous? A stitch-up of various themes shoplifted from the Italian operatic repertoire? A critic-proof crowd pleaser that's probably being staged somewhere in the world as you read this? A megahit that will likely outlive Titanic in the pop-culture pantheon, Phantom has largely redefined--for better or worse--the manner in which modern musicals are conceived, staged, and marketed...

Trading tragic romance for Faustian malevolence, the 1989 version of The Phantom of the Opera is a surprisingly good example of '80s horror. It was dismissed as gory trash by most critics (no doubt because Kevin Yagher's gruesome makeup effects are effectively revolting), but horror buffs will be more forgiving of this lush production, which ranks well above average for horror films of its time...
