My Take
Andrew Lloyd Webber is easy to take for granted precisely because he is everywhere. Cats, Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Phantom of the Opera — entire generations met musical theatre through his melodies. Trained at the Royal College of Music, he writes tunes that sound inevitable, the kind audiences hum on the way out, and critics have sometimes held that accessibility against him. I won't. Sustaining live theatre for half a century, collecting everything from a Grammy Legend Award to a knighthood along the way, takes nerve as much as craft. He bet his career on the stage, repeatedly, and kept winning.
