Yup...by
Andrew Lloyd Webber. Still playing in the West End in
London, I believe. It's due to tour in Australia later this year; last I checked, U.S. dates weren't announced yet.
According to what I read online, and interview clips I saw with ALW, the sequel takes place about 10 years after POTO ends. Madame Giry (sp?) and
Meg have helped
Eric escape the mobs and emigrated to
America, settling at Coney Island (in it's heyday).
Eric hides himself among the "freaks" and works to become very powerful and successful, as an entertainment promoter. He's never gotten over
Christine and is obsessed with her.
Christine is married to
Roul and has a son,
Gustave. She's been away from the stage and singing for many years.
Eric contacts her anonymously, offering her a large sum of money for a "come back" performance in his new show at Coney Island. She accepts and finds out, only after she's there, that
Eric is behind the scheme.
Visit that convenient video site and search "
Love Never Dies". There are interview clips there as well as the music video for the first single, "'
Till I Hear You Sing" and a clip of the stage performance of that song at the West End.
I'll warn you that if you read much online, you will find spoilers you may not want.
