French composer Gerard Presgurvic wrote the score.

"(The music) has got all the love and passion behind it," Little says.

Little says he'd choose the role of the prince if given the opportunity to perform in it because he's amazed by the character's style and voice.

He jokes that he's too old to be Romeo.

The Phantom of Opera earned over 70 million yuan ($10 million) when it ran at the Tianqiao Performing Arts Center from last November through Jan 10.

"They are all different, but yet they are all the same," Little says of The Phantom of Opera and Romeo and Juliette.

"We all tell stories. We love to move the people and change the way they feel from the way they enter and exit the theater."
