[Andrew Lloyd Webber's] enthusiasm for [artist Robert Heindel's "The Obsession of the Dance" collection] prompted his request for Heindel to paint the already established musical ‘Cats’, and cover the rehearsal period of ‘The Phantom of The Opera’. ‘Phantom’ was an altogether different proposition - almost pure theatre meant a real departure from studies of movement to a focus upon pure assumed emotion. In the same way as the performers, Heindel needed to apprehend the spirit of ‘The Phantom’. The final paintings, predominantly of the two main characters, are charged with the fear, despair and love so central to the world’s ‘most famous’ musical.
