The Opera was first published nearly 100 years ago in France in 1909. There have been many versions of the opera in the mid 1900s and the famous film came out in 2004.
The book was written by Gaston Leroux in France. The musical itself originated in Britain where it first premiered. The movie I have no idea where it was made but i am assuming it was in Britain because most of the cast and Andrew Lloyd Webber are all British.
