No Broadway musical has matched the longevity of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera. In 2006, the production overtook Cats as the longest-running show in Broadway history, with 7,486 performances. That show count has since surpassed 12,000.
In London, The Phantom of the Opera ran at Her Majesty’s Theater for more than three decades, logging an additional 12,000 performances. On Broadway, the 1996 revival of Chicago has run for more than 8,000 performances, second to Phantom by nearly 4,000 shows.
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera has won more than 70 major honors and awards, including a Tony Award for Best Musical, six additional Tony Awards, seven Drama Desk Awards, and three Olivier Awards in the UK.
