Phantom Appears at Venetian

"The Venetian is proud to present 'The Phantom of the Opera' in a custom-built theatre that will amaze all who enter it and truly maximize this incredible experience for each and every guest," said Rob Goldstein, president and chief operating officer of The Venetian.

The new production transports theatergoers to The Paris Opera House and boasts a series of special effects, including a crashing replica of the famed chandelier. The 95-minute version of the musical includes every song from the original and is directed by 20-time Tony Award winner Harold Prince.

The Phantom opening comes just months after The Venetian welcomed the Blue Man Group -- one of Las Vegas' most popular and longest-running shows. And The Venetian is not finished adding to its wide variety of nighttime entertainment; later this year The Venetian will welcome comedic impressionist Gordie Brown to yet another new custom-designed theater.

"This diverse entertainment line-up along with our award winning restaurants and the extremely popular TAO Nightclub enables us to offer our guests the most enticing nightlife in the city," said Goldstein. "The Venetian has taken its place as the premier entertainment destination within America's most exhilarating city."

The most successful theatrical endeavor of all time, "The Phantom of the Opera" has grossed more than $3 billion worldwide since its London premiere in 1986, having played more than 65,000 performances in 20 countries and 110 cities. Phantom at The Venetian is produced by the Really Useful Group Ltd., Live Nation and Becker Zeiger.
