The longest running show on Broadway is marking a major milestone.

"The Phantom of the Opera" will celebrate its 10,000th performance Saturday.

It's the first Broadway show to ever reach that mark.

The entire cast will be joined on stage by the show's choreographer and former cast members for a special curtain call.

A champagne toast and cake-cutting ceremony follow the show.

"Phantom" opened in New York in 1988 and became Broadway's longest-running show in 2006.
