Phantom Of The Opera is one of the best musicals of all time, likewise with cats and Evita! yeah, he's a very creepy looking guy, but he is talented. They may well be some of the best musicals of all time however as far as musicals are concerned the bar isn't placed very high. You may have guessed that musicals are not in my top 10(0) musical genres, I am no friend of Dorothy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarolAnn 926 Posted October 26, 2009 Given his face looks like he's permanently ejaculating, this surprised me! Maybe he is permanently ejaculating. Not if he has prostate cancer. I wouldn't bet on 4 - 5 years. Prostate cancer is highly survivable when caught early, and even when it isn't most forms are extremely slow growing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A quick google search on 'Andrew Lloyd Webber cancer' revealed no recent news, but I didn't wanna dig very deep into the interwebs, so I might have missed something. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Switch 141 Posted March 6, 2016 Well, his prostate was removed the last time he had cancer, so this time it should originate somewhere else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GossipGabe 333 Posted March 6, 2016 Well, his prostate was removed the last time he had cancer, so this time it should originate somewhere else. Well, even if the prostate itself was removed, that doesn't give him complete immunity from recurrence/metastases. But if the prostate was removed more than 5 years ago, it should be something else. However, I'm not entirely convinced that he is ill at all. Sure, he is gaunt and his face is very ugly - but has it ever been pretty? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,569 Posted June 16, 2018 I've got a suspicion his cancer may have come back. He was given a "special award" at the Tonys last week, and he received a Special Recognition award at the Classical Brits the other day. One honorary award is normal, but two in a week?
