After months of speculation, The Phantom has finally confirmed his intention to return to New York and has revealed that Tony-winning director Diane Paulus (Pippin, Waitress) will direct Masquerade.

The news was revealed in the latest red note sent to press from the Opera Ghost:

"I have secured an address on 57th Street, a more salubrious part of town than my previous, where I have instructed the director Diane Paulus to prepare my new vision of the legend. I have observed that she has considerable credentials in the fields of opera and musical theatre. Under my guidance she has created, along with my minion Lloyd Webber, an event like no other with my characters played by performers of exceptional ability.” - O.G

Masquerade will take audiences inside, behind-the-scenes, and closer than ever before to the strange affair of The Phantom of the Opera – a mystery never fully explained. From the highest rooftop balconies to the subterranean lair deep below the Opera Populaire at 218 West 57th St, guests will be invited to experience the music of the night and “a little illumination,” more intimately than ever before as they are invited to "dress extravagantly" and “hide your face” as they move through the building.
