At the end of the show, Andrew Lloyd Webber came out for his curtain call and bows. He then brought out the Royal Albert Hall creative team, the original creative team, as well as the original leads from both the London and Broadway productions, including Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman.
Sarah sang 'The Phantom of the Opera', accompanied by four actors who had played the lead role - Colm Wilkinson (from the original workshop and the Canadian production), Anthony Warlow (from the Australian production), Peter Joback, (who was the Phantom in the West End, Broadway, and Sweden) and John Owen-Jones (from the London and 25th Anniversary Tour productions).
The performance concluded when the (then) current Phantom Ramin Karimloo joins the other four Phantoms to sing 'The Music of the Night', along with the entire cast and creative teams including Michael Crawford!
