The new Andrew Lloyd Webber musical Stephen Ward based on the Profumo scandal is to shutter early on 29th March after running for less than four months. It was booking until May.
In a press statement co-producer Robert Fox said: "I am very proud of the show and our wonderful
company. Andrew has never been afraid to embrace difficult and
challenging subject matters and Ward’s strong and compelling
story highlights a serious miscarriage of justice. The piece set out to
explore his fascinating life as a piece of serious theatre which has
now been told to a new generation. The strong critical reviews commend
what I think is possibly Andrew's best score in years, paired with some
of the finest writing and lyrics Don and Christopher have ever
delivered. I am very sad to see the show close in London but firmly
believe this piece will be seen by many audiences in the future."
