Love Never Dies Karimloo undergoes surgery

Ramin Karimloo who is playing the Phantom in Andrew Lloyd Webber's  Love Never Dies has been suffering from a flu-like virus which has caused him to miss shows at the Adelphi Theatre over the Easter weekend.

But it’s not a virus as the actor has now posted the following message on Facebook today:  “It's not flu as first was suspected. Blood tests showed a problem and I was rushed for Key Hole surgery last night. Did not see that coming at all. All is well and will be fine and I'm determined to be back asap."

Karimloo's understudy, Tam Mutu is playing the role of Mr Y in his absence.
