On the night of January 26, 1988, a conductor stepped to the podium at the Majestic Theatre in New York City, tapped his baton, raised his arms, and signaled
the orchestra to play. Moments later, American theatergoers first heard the dramatic opening chords of The Phantom of the Opera. Today, this scene has been repeated more than 11,500 times and Phantom has become the longest-running musical in Broadway history.
Like most classic musicals, Phantom of the Opera begins with an overture—an orchestral introduction that captures the audience’s attention and gives them a preview of the music they are going to hear. Without such an introduction—if the charac-ters simply walked onstage and began singing or speaking—the beginning of the play would seem too abrupt, and the audience would not be suitably “primed” for the entertainment.
Similarly, most musicals end with a finale, when the whole cast is onstage, elements of the dramatic plot are resolved, portions of the principal songs are recalled, and the music is brought to a dramatic climax. If there were no such conclusion, if the actors merely stopped and walked offstage, the audi-ence would be left unsatisfied.
