Love Never Dies

Love Never Dies is a supposed sequel to the classic Phantom of the Opera. In the show, Christine Daaé is invited by an anonymous impresario to perform at Phantasma, a new attraction on Coney Island. With her husband Raoul and son Gustave in tow, she journeys to Brooklyn unaware that it is actually "The Phantom" who has arranged her appearance in the popular beach resort. The show does not even come close to capturing the magic of the original Phantom. The true star of "Love Never Dies" is unquestionably scenic and costume designer Gabriela Tylesova, whose spectacular smoke-and-mirrors sets and opulent costumes offer welcome distraction from the otherwise omnipresent lethargy.
