Andrew Lloyd Webber Talks Tony Season, Future Projects

Andrew Lloyd Webber will soon receive a Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's Tony Award ceremony. But which musical is he looking to see win big this season? According to a wtop report, the legendary composer very much enjoyed Tony favorite The Band's Visit.

"I found it very exciting," Lloyd Webber said. "I loved the score. I hope that does well." The multiple Tony Award winner says he's seen every show from the 2017-2018 season, calling the array of plays and musicals "intriguing."

The wtop report also touches on the composer's upcoming projects. Lloyd Webber recently released a memoir, titled Unmasked, that discusses his life and career up until the premiere of The Phantom of the Opera in 1988. He says he is currently working on another musical project, and would rather focus on that than writing a second part to the memoir. As for decade-long murmurings of a film version of Sunset Boulevard, Lloyd Webber says the project has yet to be greenlit.
