According to MCV, an Andrew Lloyd Webber video game titled "Andrew Lloyd Webber Musicals: Sing & Dance" will be released exclusively for Wii today, Sept. 14, 2012.

A description of the game states: "Fans of hit musicals such as 'The Phantom of the Opera', ‘Sunset Boulevard’, 'Evita', 'Cats', 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' and 'Jesus Christ Superstar' will now be able to put themselves center stage with this new game."

The game features 45 years worth of Webber's works, including 32 songs from 13 musicals, such as Evita's "Don't Cry For Me Argentina," Jesus Christ Superstar's "Superstar" and The Phantom of the Opera's "All I Ask Of You." It also features West End stars Elaine Paige, Michael Crawford, Boyzone, Donny Osmond, David Essex, Sarah Brightman and more performing alongside the gamer.

"This is a fabulous signing for us," said Paul Nicholls, sales and marketing director at Koch, in a statement. "Andrew Lloyd Webber and his creations are a British institution that have been enjoyed by generations across the world. The chance to bring this product to market for the Nintendo Wii is both an honor and hugely exciting."
