Katie Travis News

Cameron Mackintosh and Andrew Lloyd Webber's Really Useful Group are delighted to announce the casting for their spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA currently on sale for the premiere St. Louis engagement at the Fabulous Fox Theatre. With newly reinvented staging and stunning scenic design, this new version of PHANTOM, one of the most successful musicals of all-time, will be performed by a cast and orchestra of 52, making this one of the largest productions on tour in North America.

This weekend, The Hampton Roads Show in Norfolk featured a special Broadway edition of Live Music Friday and welcomed THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA tour's Katie Travis (Christine Daae) and Storm Lineberger (Raoul). Watch their performance below!

Last week, the newly reimagined tour of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA set up shop at The Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts in Downtown Orlando. The production continues its run in the City Beautiful through Sunday. Two of BroadwayWorld Orlando's editors, Matt Tamanini and Kimberly Moy, attended the press night, and discussed their differing impressions afterward.

The recently reimagined tour of iconic musical THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is in the middle of its stop at Orlando's brand new Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. Last week, after their first preview performance, stars Katie Travis (Christine Daae), Jacquelynne Fontaine (Carlotta Giudicelli), and Frank Viveros (Ubaldo Piangi) sat down with media to discuss the changes made to the show, the gorgeous Walt Disney Theatre, and being a part of the 'Phantom Phamily.'

In the summer of 1998, as part of my high school's drama club, I made my first trip to New York City. Over the course of seven days, I saw eight musicals, both on and Off-Broadway. While I was already a devout musical theatre fan, seven of those eight solidified my love for the art form, while one left me cold, and slightly angry. That show was THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. I have spent the past 16 years saying that Andrew Lloyd Weber and Charles Hart's musical was the worst Broadway or touring show that I have ever seen. So, when it was announced that its newly reimagined staging would be the first touring production to grace Orlando's Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, I was honestly hopeful that as I aged, my appreciation for the longest running show in Broadway history would have as well; and I am happy to say that it most certainly did.
