Sad to hear that Jane Lapotaire has died. She was a terrific stage & tv actress. So many standout roles. But the BBC’s brilliant mini series as Marie Curie & her Piaf were unforgettable performances that stay long in the memory. Another true great leaves the stage. RIP

Very sad to hear Neil Sedaka has left the stage. He wrote so many wonderful songs such as Laughter in the Rain, The Hungry Years, Breaking Up Is Hard To Do, Solitaire, Love Will Keep Us Together, Oh! Carol & Calendar Girl. A terrific performer, influence and great loss. RIP Stu 🎶x

Very sad to hear that Chris Rea has died. A great north eastern singer/songwriter & blues man. A superb guitarist, with an unmistakable voice. He wrote so many classy pop hits including Fool (If You Think it’s Over), On The Beach, Road to Hell & Driving Home For Christmas. RIP Stu 🎶x
I was thrilled & very proud that the legendary Tim Rice came over to the National Opera House in Wexford, Ireland to introduce my new musical ‘Irish Affair’ on the main O’ Reilly stage. It was fab to see Tim before & then catch up after the show! Stu🎼x
