'Phantom of the Opera' bids farewell after 35 years on Broadway.

The Phantom of the Opera, the longest-running show in Broadway history, is closing after more than 35 years and almost 14,000 performances. The musical has grossed over $1.3 billion and employed an estimated 6,500 people, including over 400 actors. Despite its success, producer Cameron Mackintosh says the show was losing money even before the pandemic. The final performance will be on Sunday, April 16, and there are plans for surprises at the final curtain call. For the other 124 people employed by The Phantom of the Opera, it's time to find a new gig.
