"I'm honoured to represent this Tony Nominated, multi-award winning genius whose works have graced the best stages in the world and attracted the biggest names in the business such as Betty Buckley, Kelli O'Hara, Yo-Yo Ma, Norm Lewis, Terrence Mann, and F. Murray Abraham. One of the very last of the great composer/ lyricists of astonishing versatility - from glorious sweeping operetta and pure, classical musical theatre to today's more conversational genres - all bound by brilliant story telling and lyrics that Sondheim, Schwartz and Hart would be happy to call their own. A legend in his own time." - Keith Merrill
