Super-producer and composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has joined his fellow artists working in the beleagueredand music industries in taking legal steps to get the U.K. government to release results of its ongoing Events Research Program.

However, the government has failed to reveal its findings so far. The U.K. was due to reopen fully on June 21 after a crippling series of COVID-19 induced lockdowns over the past 15 months, but this has been pushed back to July 19, due to the rapid spread of the Delta variant of the virus. Thanks to this, theaters, cinemas, live sporting events and concerts have been forced to continue to operate at vastly reduced capacities, resulting in debilitating losses.

“The government’s actions are forcing theater and music companies off a cliff as the summer wears on, whilst cherry-picking high-profile sporting events to go ahead. The situation is beyond urgent,” the “Cats” composer added.
