Three Phantoms UK Tour & New Wimbledon Theatre

After several months away, Access London is back! Thank you to everyone for your messages and support over the last few months, very much appreciated. Also finally back on Twitter after a break My Facebook and Twitter feeds have been full of status updates and excitement about this Summer's much anticipated UK tour of the Three Phantoms concert - not surprising as it's a fantastic show, great tunes, funny and performed by some incredibly talented singers. I've had quite a few messages asking about Access to the venues it's touring to. As it's a pretty extensive UK tour (followed by another in the Autumn), I can't give detailed info for all theatres involved. The blog is predominately about London venues, so I'll look at the New Wimbledon Theatre where the tour arrives to in a couple of weeks time. I will include links to the Access pages of all the other venues though, so if you're not in London, check them out and get yourselves to your nearest venue. The Show: Three Phantoms UK Summer tour opened in Dartford last week. Over the next 6 weeks, they are touring the UK extensively. "Earl Carpenter, Matthew Cammelle and Stephen John Davis (our current cast) have all played, to huge acclaim, the mysterious Phantom at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London and between them have given over 3,000 of the show’s 10,000 performances. Established and respected musical theatre performers in their own right, they have been regularly entertaining audiences worldwide in some of the world’s most popular musicals. They are joined onstage by the fantastic Rebecca Caine, whose performance as Christine Daaé in the original cast of The Phantom of the Opera opposite Michael Crawford and the Canadian premiere alongside Colm Wilkinson, was acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic and who remains an equally respected artist with a career encompassing musicals and opera." "this outstanding show features over 20 songs from Les Misérables, West Side Story, Chicago, Kiss Me Kate, My Fair Lady and Wicked to name but a few. The beautiful staging of this concert, evoking the drama and excitement of the great musicals concludes by celebrating the world’s most successful entertainment phenomenon - The Phantom of the Opera."
