‘King of the musicools!’ Inside the outrageous musical send-up of Andrew Lloyd Webber

Comedy | The Guardian: One Man Musical was launched under a veil of discretion, with its creators anticipating it might not last a week. Six months on, after hit Edinburgh and Soho theatre runs, it has a six-week season in the heart of the West End. (Oh, and it was ranked the Guardian’s favourite comedy show of 2024 too.) You’d never guess from the coy title what a sensation this maiden musical-theatre offering from comedy duo Flo & Joan is becoming. But a sensation it is – and will remain, unless its subject, and his lawyers, lodge a belated demand that it cease and desist.
