Love Never Dies- It's not just the story you'll enjoy
Those who look beyond the story of Love Never Dies will find much more to enjoy, one critic has said.

A reviewer of new West End musical Love Never Dies has said that the show features more to admire than just a good story.
Katty Pearce, writing for the Islington Tribune, said that while she enjoyed the dark plot and the devices used to bring Christine back within reach of the Phantom, she was also very impressed with the set.
"It's Bob Crowley's design that really steals the show," she enthused, pointing out that he uses a combination of real stage props and projection to create a very creepy and convincing Coney Island.
Ms Pearce also praised Andrew Lloyd Webber's "seductive and passionate" score, which she said will stick in the minds of London theatre fans for a long time to come.
Earlier this month, Love Never Dies received a glowing review from the Independent's Paul Taylor, who gave it five stars and described it as "phabulous" after watching it at the Adelphi Theatre.
