Relatively streamlined as these Connor productions tend to be, he and his producing boss did not get to be, and stay, so successful without understanding that audiences expect spectacle.
And he took at least 20 minutes out of "Phantom," which I don't miss for a second. As far as you can reasonably expect, he has updated these great beasts for our present era. I've seen all three of his reinventions of these iconic titles ("Les Mis" already has played Chicago, and "Miss Saigon" is coming from London).

Like the work of producer Cameron Mackintosh - who still controls all these productions - I like Connor's work a great deal. Connor is the very busy British director behind the new production of "Les Miserables" recently on Broadway - and the new production of "Miss Saigon" headed there in 2017.
