With the opening of the revival of Cats, Andrew Lloyd Webber has three shows currently running on Broadway.

The Cats revival opened on 31 July 2016 at the Neil Simon Theatre starring Leona Lewis as Grizabella.

This joins School of Rock at the Winter Garden Theatre and The Phantom of the Opera, still running after 25 years to make it Broadway's longest-running musical, at the Majestic Theatre to give Lord Lloyd Webber three current productions on the Great White Way.

To commemorate the occasion, Lloyd Webber posed backstage at the Cats opening with Lewis, Alex Brightman from School of Rock and James Barbour from Phantom.
