Andrew Lloyd Webber’s latest project around that title appears to be The Illusionist, a musical described in 2024–2025 coverage as a magical romance with a 1900 Vienna setting, directed by Jamie Lloyd, and co-created with Chris Terrio. There hasn’t been a widely confirmed release of a musical specifically titled “Music the Magic” in the sources I can access right now, so it’s possible you’re referring to The Illusionist or another upcoming Webber project that’s been discussed in the press.
What I can tell you now
- The Illusionist is reported as Lloyd Webber’s next musical, with a score by him and a book by Chris Terrio, aiming for a London premiere (with Broadway possible) and involving prominent collaborators like Bruno Major. This project has been described as integrating magic/illusion into the storytelling. Sources from late 2024 into 2025 discussed this as the next big musical from him.[1][2]
- Public materials and interviews through 2025 also note a mix of theater and magic elements, and specify Jamie Lloyd as director with potential Broadway or West End openings first.[2][1]
Next steps if you want the latest
- I can search for the very latest news updates specifically mentioning any project titled “Music the Magic” or any new announcements after May 2026. If you’d like, tell me to focus on London/West End updates or any US Broadway developments.
- If you have a preferred date range or a particular outlet (e.g., trade press like Deadline, What's On Stage, Playbill), I can tailor the search to those.
Would you like me to pull the newest reports on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s projects and verify whether “Music the Magic” has been announced or renamed? I can also summarize any official statements from LW Entertainment or The Really Useful Group if you want.
