It has production design by the late Maria Björnson, lighting by Andrew Bridge, and sound by Martin Levan. Direction is by Harold Prince and musical staging and choreography is by Gillian Lynne. Orchestrations are by David Cullen and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

The tour, which has played more than 7,000 performances, also stars Tim Martin Gleason as the Phantom, Sean MacLaughlin as Raoul, and Trista Moldovan as Chrisitne.
