We swear this is true: British composer Andrew Lloyd Webber is going to stage a sequel to Phantom of the Opera and this time the the setting will be New York's Coney Island.
Webber's even got a website up and running for the new production — Love Never Dies — and is selling tickets to the February premiere in London.
According to the Webber p.r. machine:
Love Never Dies continues the story of "The Phantom", who has moved from his lair in the Paris Opera House to haunt the fairgrounds of Coney Island, far across the Atlantic. Set 10 years after the mysterious disappearance of "The Phantom" from Paris, this show is a roller coaster ride of obsession and intrigue...in which music and memory can play cruel tricks...and "The Phantom" sets out to prove that, indeed, "love never dies".
Ok, everyone:
