More Information about STEPHEN WARD

STEPHEN WARD charts the rise and fall from grace of the society osteopath. Friend to film stars, spies, models, government ministers and aristocrats, his rise and ultimate disgrace coincided with the increasingly permissive lifestyle of London's elite in the early 1960's. The musical centres on Ward's involvement with the young and beautiful Christine Keeler and their chance meeting in a West End night club which led to one of the biggest political scandals and trials of the 20th century.
Please Note: A ú1.25 restoration levy (collected on behalf of the theatre) appears as part of the face value.

A ú2.75 transaction fee applies (this will be added to your order on the payment page)

"Time to can that cliché about Andrew Lloyd Webber being middle class twee. This grown-up, richly produced, strongly scored musical has timeless topicality. Bent coppers, lying parliamentarians, a bed-hopping elite and grubby newspapermen. We haven't changed much in half a century. This is a powerful musical, well worth seeing." Quentin Letts, Daily Mail

"A funny, tuneful, touching musical about sex and scandal in smart places" Georgina Brown, The Mail on Sunday

"The show is stuffed full of Lloyd Webber's trademark stirring music" Fiona Mountford, Evening Standard

"Highly enjoyable. We've never seen Andrew Lloyd Webber so mischievous" Charles Spencer, The Daily Telegraph
