A new theatrical event featuring Andrew Lloyd Webber’s timeless songs performed by current stars of Australian Musical Theatre
Singapore (April 28, 2011) – Marina Bay Sands, Lunchbox Theatrical Productions, David Atkins Enterprises, Base Entertainment and in association with The Really Useful Company Asia Pacific, is proud to announce a stunning new theatrical event, The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber at the Marina Bay Sands Grand Theater. On July 7, live musicians and Australia’s most acclaimed performers will take audiences on an unforgettable journey through the vast array of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s memorable repertoire. Tickets will go on sale Friday April 29, 2011.
Sir Lloyd Webber has been referred to as “…one of the most prolific-ever composers of musicals…” (The UK Daily Mail). He has composed over 16 musicals, several film scores, a Latin Requiem Mass and continues to create unforgettable musicals every day. After more than 40 years in the business, his music still continues to have the extraordinary ability to touch an audience, lifting them to new heights of exhilaration and emotion after just a few bars of music.
Directed by one of Australia’s leading directors Stuart Maunder, this theatrical event will feature some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most timeless songs, from Eva Peron’s passionate ‘Don’t Cry For Me Argentina’ to the classical masterpiece ‘Pie Jesu’, from the rock favorite ‘Superstar’ to the breathtaking new ‘Love Never Dies.’
“… for now, if not forever, Lloyd Webber is a genuine phenomenon…”
THE NEW YORK TIMES
Director Stuart Maunder said, “The emotional force of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s songs is undisputed. We want to celebrate the extraordinary variety of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s output and the emotional force of his songs by presenting an intimate affair with all the emotion, all the tunes whilst taking you on a musical journey – one that is stylish, inventive and surprising and also offers some rare insights into the mind of this genius creator.”
The Marina Bay Sands Grand Theater has and will continue to showcase acts from all over the world which include, critically-acclaimed Cirque Éloize iD, smash hit concert THRILLER LIVE, world-class performances by Kitaro, A.R. Rahman and Elvis Costello. And now it will play host to the maestro of musicals, the master of musical theatre, The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber. Through state-of–the-art technology, audiences will be swept from the avenues of Broadway to the magnificence of Eva Peron’s Argentina, to the speedways of Starlight Express, in a dazzling journey through the many settings of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s greatest works.
Sir Lloyd Webber was knighted in 1992 and created an honorary life peer in 1997. His musical Cats was the longest-running musical on Broadway, only to be overtaken by another of his hit musicals The Phantom of the Opera. His awards include seven Tony’s, three Grammys including Best Contemporary Classical Composition for Requiem, seven Olivier’s, a Golden Globe, an Oscar, two International Emmys, the Praemium Imperiale, the Richard Rodgers Award for Excellence in Musical Theatre and The Kennedy Center Honor.
