a friend of mine with some connections had suggested Phantom was looking to make a return (a duplicate of the current stripped down London production) soon, and that the Imperial was gonna house it. totally unsure how legit, so clock it as a silly rumor - but my pal's source would *definitely* know what the status of Phantom is... so i'm stumped.

have two musicals ever run in the same theater at the same time?"
Only if the two musicals were playing in repertory, capitalized jointly, under a VERY unique set of circumstances. That won't happen for any of these rumored or announced shows.

Heard the same thing announced very loudly and confidently by security personnel working the final private performance on April 16th…interesting to now hear it from a second person
That rumor had been floating around since the closure was announced. Could it be true? Sure. Is it? Dunno, but I highly doubt it will be in the next year.
But I know nothing.
