TotallyOz Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 (CNN) -- Andrew Lloyd Webber, the award-winning composer and producer of more than a dozen musicals including "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Cats," has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, a spokeswoman said Sunday. "The condition is in its very early stages. Andrew is now undergoing treatment and expects to be fully back at work before the end of the year," the spokeswoman said in a written statement from the London-based public relations firm Brown Lloyd James. They released no further details. In April, the Sunday Times of London included Lloyd Webber, 61, on its annual Rich list, which ranks the wealthiest people in Britain. Lloyd Webber, who lives in Kensington, was the highest-ranking entertainer on the list. He tied for 52nd place, with about $1.1 billion. http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Music/10/25/lloyd.webber.cancer/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TampaYankee Posted October 26, 2009 Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 Too bad. But then one out of three of us will get it, I believe. My father had it. The question is to treat or not. I lean toward treatment if under 70 when discovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
