Simone reflects on her Phantom of the Opera on Sydney Harbour journey

 

Grateful doesn't even begin to cover this epic journey I have been on.  Choreographing this colossal production of Phantom of the Opera here in Sydney on the Harbour has been humbling, cathartic and never once taken for granted.  Dedicated to my mum, my dad and family.  And of course Luca.  Always. All ways.

Simone Sault's musical staging of this production is gorgeous and a testimony to an incredible talent.  Doug Knight, Australian Stage. Read full review on Australian Stage website.  

Simone Sault's choreography is perfect. She uses traditional style movements, but they are performed in a way that is fresh and electrifying, such a joy to watch.  Jade Kops, Broadway World.  Read full review on Broadway World's website.

Many of the production's most beautiful moments are the work of choreographer (and assistant director) Simone Sault, who has a clear eye for spectacular use of large cast and mighty space.  Sault achieves a high level of precision and yet always maintains a lightness of touch.  The entr'acte is danced and the full company sequence in 'Masquerade' is a stunning highlight.  Simon Parris, Man In Chair.  Read full review on Simon Parris' website.
