Andrew Lloyd Webber's latest triumph
With "School of Rock" the Broadway composer is getting some of the best grades of his career
www.cbsnews.comI don’t have live access to current news right now, but here’s what’s publicly known about Andrew Lloyd Webber’s recent projects and the show mentioned in your query.
The Illusionist is highlighted as a forthcoming Lloyd Webber musical, with collaboration from Chris Terrio and participation of Bruno Major, aiming for a London premiere in 2026 and potential New York plans. This project is described as incorporating magical elements and an operatic-style score, directed by Jamie Lloyd in some reports, though production details have evolved over time.[1]
Cinderella, another Lloyd Webber project, recently topped the Official Compilations Chart with its soundtrack ahead of the musical’s world premiere in London, signaling strong anticipation and marketing around his newer material alongside classic works.[3]
Additional coverage in late 2024–2025 frames Lloyd Webber as actively expanding into new formats and venues, including immersive and staged concepts like Phantom and Evita revivals, while also pursuing fresh collaborations and cross-Atlantic endeavors (Broadway and West End). This indicates a busy, multi-platform phase for his repertoire and brand.[4][9]
