the new production which will be restructured so that Ball can reprise his
performance of the iconic song and could also feature a new song from
composer Andrew Lloyd Webber.

I am absolutely delighted to revisit Andrew Lloyd Webber’s glorious score in a re-imagined chamber production in the West End from May next year. I am so happy to be collaborating again with the brilliant director Jonathan Kent who was so inspiring when we worked together on Sweeney Todd.
