Halloween provides the ideal time to soak up the atmosphere at the The Phantom of the Opera theatre show at Her Majesty’s Theatre London.
the show originally opened at Her Majesty’s Theatre on 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, the show now plays to millions around the world.
Created by Gaston Leroux, The Phantom of the Opera is based in the latter part of the nineteenth century when France was rampant with belief in the supernatural and the spirit world and tells of an extraordinary episode in the history of France’s greatest opera house.
With Halloween fast approaching there has never been a better time to go and see this theatrical masterpiece. With regular performances every week, Phantom of the Opera theatre tickets are usually easy enough to book. For those wanting to make a weekend of it to take in the show and the city of London, there are some great Phantom of the Opera theatre breaks that include tickets to the show and overnight accommodation in a London Hotel.
To date, The Phantom of the Opera is recognised as the most financially successful musical of all time with millions of copies of the original Andrew Lloyd Webber Phantom of the Opera CD and the Theatre version of the soundtrack being sold worldwide. 2004 saw the release of the highly antisipated Phantom of the Opera film, directed by Joel Schumacher.

Boxing - David Haye V Monte Two Gunz Barrett at the o2 Arena Greenwich
The Haymaker takes center stage on November the 15th at the Greenwich o2 Arena London.
At the age of 28, David Haye is currently the hottest cruiser-weight-turned-heavyweight boxer in the UK. David has achieved much throughout his long and distinguished boxing career with a series of wins that more often than not result in a knock-out, he also has a string of European and World Wide tournament medals to his name.
The bout at the London o2 Arena in Greenwich sees David Haye square-up to Monte “Two Gunz” Barrett in what is undoubtedly going to be a boxing match not to miss. Barrett with his famously devastating right hook and victories against Dominic Guinn, Owen Beck and Tye Fields has threatening to ‘annihilate’ David Haye in their November face off at the o2. Barrett is currently ranked at number six by the World Boxing Organisation (WBO) and a former WBC and WBA world heavyweight title challenger.
Tickets for David Haye v Monte Barrett at the o2 Arena here.
The main David Haye fight event of the night is likely to be a late night start, this is due to live TV requirements. There will be strictly no admissions to the event after 11:30pm.
