Special guest Sir Tim Rice talks Chess returning to Broadway, writing songs with Elton John - and what it’s like to be working with Andrew Lloyd Webber again

Sarah talks to lyricist extraordinaire Sir Tim Rice as he takes My Life in Musicals, his show of theatrical memories, on a tour of the UK and Ireland from April 11. In a conversation that ranges from Evita to The Lion King and beyond, he reveals why he doesn’t go to the theatre much any more, his love for Chess - and hopes for its revival - and why a good story is the key to the success of any musical. Plus: the best musical he’s seen for years.
