The music by Webber and Rice is terrific. The music carried the whole show--not the staging.
The performance was quite an extravaganza. (that ISN"T a compliment)
I preferred the Broadway show and the movie.
The present version was too big for a stage production and too small a stage for a movie.
I will submit that the costumes were excellent and I liked seeing Alice Cooper. In general, the voices were meh.
The audience making so much noise was a tremendous distraction. They needed "shushers" disciplining the concert-goers. The audience members should take their seats, sit down and shut up.
