Andrew Lloyd Webber

Andrew Lloyd Webber ha composto le musiche di alcuni dei musical più famosi al mondo, da Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1969) a Bad Cinderella (2022). I suoi spettacoli sono stati continuativamente in scena nel West End per 50 anni e a Broadway per 43. Quando Sunset Boulevard si aggiunse a School of Rock, Cats e The Phantom of the Opera, egli eguagliò il record di Rodgers & Hammerstein di quattro spettacoli in scena contemporaneamente a Broadway. È nella cerchia ristretta di artisti con status EGOT, avendo ricevuto premi Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, e Tony. Sono di sua proprietà sei teatri a Londra tra cui l’iconico London Palladium e il Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Riaperto nel luglio 2021, quest’ultimo è stato completamente restaurato e ristrutturato al costo di oltre £ 60 milioni e rappresenta uno dei più grandi progetti mai intrapresi da un proprietario di teatro privato nella storia recente. Lloyd Webber è infatti fermamente convinto del fatto che ogni centesimo di profitto ricavato dai suoi teatri debba essere riutilizzato per gli edifici stessi. Egli crede anche fortemente nell’importanza dell’educazione musicale e dell’inclusività in campo artistico. La Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation eroga 30 borse di studio annuali per le arti dello spettacolo per studenti di talento ed in situazione di difficoltà economica e supporta molti progetti tra cui la Music In Secondary School Trust e ricerche in merito all’inclusione nel mondo teatrale. Andrew Lloyd Webber ha composto gli inni per la Coppa del Mondo 1978 in Argentina e per due cerimonie olimpiche, tra cui “Amigos Para Siempre” la canzone ufficiale dei giochi estivi del 1992 a Barcellona. Ha scritto “Let Us Love In Peace” a seguito degli attacchi al World Trade Centre, e ha scritto ed eseguito “Sing” con Gary Barlow per il giubileo di diamante della regina Elisabetta II nel 2012. Ha curato spettacoli di teatro musicale per il concerto del giubileo di Platino di Elisabetta II nel giugno 2022. È stato nominato cavaliere della regina nel 1992 e barone per concessione della parìa a vita di Sua Maestà la Regina Elisabetta II nel 1997.

Charles Hart

Charles Hart è nato a Londra ed ha studiato a Maidenhead e a Cambridge. È autore dei testi delle canzoni per diversi musical (The Phantom of the Opera, Aspects of Love, The Kissing-Dance, The Dreaming), opere (The Vampyr, BBC TV) e canzoni, così come di testi e musiche per la televisione (Watching, Split Ends, Granada TV) e la radio (Love Songs, BBC Radio). Il suo Two Studies for String Quartet è stato eseguito dal Quartetto Sacconi nel 2005 nella Purcell Room a Londra. Le fotografie di Charles Hart sono presenti su manifesti e locandine, così come le sue pubblicazioni sono apparse su numerose testate, da Attitude al Daily Telegraph. Nel 2003 è stato uno dei tre fotografi che hanno partecipato alla mostra organizzata dall’UNICEF per celebrare la Convenzione delle Nazioni Unite sui diritti dell’Infanzia. Vive e lavora a Londra.

Richard Stilgoe

Richard Stilgoe vive nel Surrey (dove è nato) e ha cinque figli e due nipoti. Scrive canzoni, dirige l’Orpheus Trust ed è impegnato nell’educazione musicale – più recentemente per Stilgoe Family Concerts (Royal Festival Hall) ed il National Foundation for Youth Music. È cresciuto a Liverpool, e ha fatto parte del coro della chiesa St Agnes e del Cavern Club fino e della Cambridge Footlights. Cantare le sue canzoni in pub e club lo ha portato ad apparire in numerosi programmi televisivi come Today nel 1960 e successivamente Nationwide e That’s Life, così come in diverse serie di sua creazione. Negli anni ’80 è stato coinvolto nella realizzazione dei musical Cats, Starlight Express e The Phantom of the Opera, che continuano ad essere in scena in tutto il mondo. Cats e Starlight Express sono stati rispettivamente il primo e il secondo spettacolo in scena per più tempo della storia del teatro britannico. Le scuole rappresentano spesso i suoi musical Bodywork e Brilliant the Dinosaur ed una sua nuova opera, Exit Allan, è stata eseguita al Festival Internazionale di Musical di Cardiff nel 2002. Presenta gli Schools Proms dal 1988 ed ha superato le 200 apparizioni nel gioco televisivo Countdown. Nel 1982, Richard e Peter Skellern sono apparsi nel varietà televisivo Royal Variety Performance. Mentre guardavano estasiati Ethel Merman da dietro le quinte, si sono detti: “Dobbiamo lavorare a qualcosa insieme”. Nulla è accaduto fino al 1984, quando i Lord’s Taverners li hanno riuniti per quello che è diventato un due comico duraturo. Insieme hanno intrapreso tour nel Regno Unito, in Australia, ad Hong Kong, a Gibilterra, Roma e Stoccolma. Nel 2000 il duo si è esibito nel primo di diversi tour di addio, ed è apparso nel Royal Variety Performance. Nel 1998, Richard ha fondato l’Orpheus Centre, che offre alle persone disabili l’opportunità di avvicinarsi alle arti dello spettacolo. I suoi studenti ora si esibiscono in tutto il Paese, dalla Royal Opera House, al Notting Hill Carnival e al Glastonbury Festival. Ha ricevuto due nomination ai premi Tony per il teatro, tre premi Monte Carlo, un Prix Italia, un dottorato onorario e un O.B.E. Recentemente è stato presidente dei Lord’s Taverners. I suoi hobby sono l’architettura, la demolizione (possiede un escavatore Komatsu P.C.120), il cricket, la vela e la sua famiglia. Non avrebbe mai immaginato che sarebbe stato il protagonista di una puntata di This is Your Life nel 2001.

Rinaldo Rinaldi & Maria Grazia Cervetti

Rinaldo Rinaldi e Maria Grazia Cervetti, diplomati entrambi in scenografia presso l’Accademia di Belle Arti di Bologna, hanno intrapreso le loro prime esperienze professionali come allievi e collaboratori di Koki Fregni. Sostenitori della “pittura di scena” come forma d’arte applicata si sono dedicati fin dall’inizio della loro attività alla sperimentazione in campo scenografico, cercando di coniugare la grande tradizione italiana con la ricerca di nuove tecniche espressive da applicare alle grandi dimensioni. Nel corso degli anni si sono cimentati come scenografi bozzettisti in tutte le espressioni teatrali: lirica, balletto, prosa e musical e come pittori scenografi hanno prestato la loro opera per prestigiosi teatri italiani ed europei oltre che per registi come Luca Ronconi, Dario Fò, Pierluigi Pizzi, Peter Greenaway, Peter Sellars, Michael Haneke, Graham Vick, Bob Wilson.

Andrew Lloyd Webber

Andrew Lloyd Webber has composed the scores of some of the world’s most famous musicals. From Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1969) to Bad Cinderella (2022). Lloyd Webber has had shows running continually in the West End for 50 years and on Broadway for 43. When Sunset Boulevard joined School of Rock, Cats, and The Phantom of the Opera he equalled Rodgers & Hammerstein’s record of four shows running simultaneously on Broadway. He is one of the select group of artists with EGOT status, having received Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards. Lloyd Webber owns six London theatres including the iconic London Palladium and Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Reopened in July 2021, the latter was completely restored and renovated at a cost of over £60 million. It was one of the biggest projects ever undertaken by a private theatre owner in recent times. His mantra is that every penny of profit made from his theatres is ploughed back into the buildings. Lloyd Webber is passionate about the importance of musical education and diversity in the arts. Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation provides 30 performing arts scholarships every year for talented students with financial need and supports a range of projects such as the Music In Secondary School Trust and commissioning research into diversity in theatre. Andrew Lloyd Webber has composed anthems for the 1978 World Cup in Argentina and for two Olympic ceremonies, including “Amigos Para Siempre” the official song of the 1992 summer games in Barcelona. He wrote “Let Us Love In Peace” for the aftermath of the attacks on The World Trade Centre, and wrote and performed “Sing” with Gary Barlow at Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond in 2012. Lloyd Webber curated musical theatre performances for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee concert in June 2022. Andrew Lloyd Webber was knighted in 1992 and created an honorary life peer in 1997.

Charles Hart

Charles Hart was born in London and educated in Maidenhead and Cambridge. He has written words for musicals (The Phantom of the Opera, Aspects of Love, The Kissing-Dance, The Dreaming), opera (The Vampyr, BBC TV) and miscellaneous songs, as well as both words and music for television (Watching, Split Ends, Granada TV) and radio (Love Songs, BBC Radio). His Two Studies for String Quartet were performed by the Sacconi Quartet in 2005 at London’s Purcell Room. Charles Hart’s photographs have appeared on posters and in playbills, as well as publications ranging from Attitude to The Daily Telegraph, and in 2003 he was one of three photographers to feature in an exhibition organised by UNICEF to celebrate the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. He lives and works in London.

Richard Stilgoe

Richard Stilgoe lives in Surrey (where he was born) and has five children and two grandchildren. He writes songs, runs the Orpheus Trust and is involved in music education – most recently the Stilgoe Family Concerts (Royal Festival Hall) and the National Foundation for Youth Music. He was brought up in Liverpool, and progressed through St Agnes Church Choir and the Cavern Club to the Cambridge Footlights. Singing his
songs in pubs and clubs led to appearances on the Today programme in the 1960s, and thence to Nationwide and That’s Life, as well as several series of his own. In the 1980s he was involved in the writing of Cats, Starlight Express and The Phantom of the Opera, which continue to play all over the world. Cats and Starlight Express were the longest and second-longest running shows in British theatre history. Schools perform his musicals Bodywork and Brilliant the Dinosaur and a new work, Exit Allan, was performed at the International Festival of Musicals at Cardiff in 2002. He has presented the Schools Proms since 1988, and passed his 200th
appearance on Countdown. In 1982, Richard and Peter Skellern appeared in the Royal Variety Performance. Standing star-struck in the wings watching Ethel Merman, they said, “We really ought to do something together”. Nothing happened until 1984, when the Lord’s Taverners brought them together for what has become an enduring part-time double act. They have toured the UK, Australia, Hong Kong, Gibraltar, Rome and Stockholm. The year 2000 saw the first of several farewell tours, and an appearance together at the Royal Variety Performance. In 1998, Richard founded the Orpheus Centre, which provides opportunities for disabled people to take part in the performing arts. Its students now appear all over the country, including the Royal Opera House, the Notting Hill Carnival and the Glastonbury Festival. He has two Tony nominations, three Monte Carlo Prizes, a Prix Italia, an Honorary Doctorate and an O.B.E. He was recently President of the Lord’s Taverners. His hobbies are architecture, demolition (he owns a Komatsu P.C.120 digger), cricket, sailing and his family, none of whom told him he was going to be the subject of This is Your Life in 2001.
