Last night Nadim Naaman (pictured right) made a last minute return to the West End production of The Phantom of the Opera as Raoul.
The performer will once again play the role tonight (due to the indisposition of Sean Palmer and his understudies), nearly two years after he left the production.

Writing on Twitter yesterday afternoon, Nadim said, "Erm... So... I'm on my way to Her Majesty's. Due to illness, I am playing Raoul tonight in Phantom! It's been nearly two years. Gulp."
After the performance he wrote, "Speechless. Have just had the most incredible night back at Phantom. Thank you to every single person who helped, onstage and off. Literally the best building I've ever worked in. And even a two year gap, it was a joy. Love. It."
Nadim recently released his debut album and headlined two concerts at The Pheasantry. He is currently organising a charity concert named Playing Our Part which takes place on Sunday (18th May) at Cadogan Hall in London. Stars of the West End, including Killian Donnelly, Simon Bailey and Shone White, will sing for Target Ovarian.
As well as understudying Raoul in The Phantom of the Opera, Nadim's theatre credits include One Man, Two Guvnors (Theatre Royal Haymarket) Titanic (Southwarlk Playhouse), Chess (Union) and The Sound of Music (London Palladium).
Last week Nathan Amzi and Simon Lipkin made last minute returns to Rock Of Ages.
