The Phantom of the Opera:
A Concert by the Light of Hundreds of Candles

The legendary "The Phantom of the Opera" will grace the stage in Ashdod, illuminated by the enchanting glow of hundreds of candles.

This concert version of one of the most famous musicals in history will be performed by soloists of the Israeli Opera in the original language, accompanied by a string quintet and grand piano.

The Phantom of the Opera is Andrew Lloyd Webber's masterpiece, based on the novel by French writer Gaston Leroux. Staged in 151 cities across 30 countries, the show has been seen by over 150 million people. The plot follows the talented singer Christine Daaé, who becomes the obsession of a mysterious, disfigured musical genius. It is a story about the power of true love and how even the harshest heart can grow kind and soft.

This concert in Ashdod offers the audience a chance to witness the dark and beautiful story of the mystical "Angel of Music." Hundreds of flickering candles will create an incredible atmosphere, as talented musicians bring to life the haunting, gothic spirit of mid-19th-century Paris.
