Winslow Leach, a naive but talented composer, has his rock opera stolen by Swan, a ruthless and charismatic music producer. After being imprisoned and disfigured, Winslow becomes the "Phantom" of the Paradise, a rock palace, and attempts to sabotage the venue’s opening while protecting Phoenix, a young singer he loves. A rock satire, horrific and comic, blending Faust, The Phantom of the Opera, and a critique of the music industry.
