"Jubilant... What keeps the show alive is its delight in simple storytelling, the bounce of Tim Rice's lyrics and the merry eclecticism of Andrew Lloyd Webber's score, which embraces country and western, calypso, French Chanson and Elvis-style rock... There is wit in Lloyd Webber's willingness to try different styles and in Rice's verbal dexterity." - Michael Billington, The Guardian
