Yeston & Kopit's Phantom
Bloomington
Artistry, 1800 W. Old Shakopee Rd., Bloomington, MN 55431
The Tony Award-winning team of Maury Yeston and Arthur Kopit reveal the man behind the mask in this story of a passionate soprano and a tortured genius. Closest to the original 1910 novel by Gaston Leroux, Yeston & Kopit explore the depths of the Phantom’s character and illuminate his humanity in ways that create an intimate, deeply moving theater experience. Composer Maury Yeston’s music echoes an earlier, classic age of musical theater, with lush, elegant music that evokes “musical theater’s golden past” (New York Times). Audiences will experience Artistry at its best, as they see William Gilness* (last appearing here as Javert in Les Misérables) as the Phantom; hear the passionate score played by a 20-piece orchestra; and are transported to 1890s Paris through the magic of our accomplished designers
