Lord Never Diets: notes on a premiere

Love Never Dies is a bit too vague a title for me: it sounds like the name of the next Bond movie.

So how did the press react to the Phantom sequel musical? With the usual mix of savage apathy, gleeful spite and feigned disappointment, especially from online critics. But it it any good?

We'll only know once the hacks have gone home and the tourists start booking. In other words, once the paint has finally dried.

At least it's been a classic case of measuring the column inches rather than reading them. Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber will be delighted with the turn out.
