What made you want to turn our talk show Into a rock show? - You know that I have long been a devotee Of your particular talking program, But if I'm honest, the one thing By which I cannot abide about it is all that ghastly talking.
And then one day it came to me-- Turn it into a musical.
And it will all end With my most phantasmagorical creation To date-- the chandelier copter.
It's a heli-o-copter Made entirely of spare chandeliers.
But it's a bit dear-- expensive.
I don't know if we have it in the budget.

Off you go, boys.
Do not say the title of the scottish play macbeth.

- beware beware - Who's this guy? - I'm the phantom of the bang! Bang! Set.
I live below your theater Directly below your chair, in fact.
So, if you were ever to poop through your chair And there was a hole in the floor, It would land on my head.
- Okay, I don't think that's gonna happen.
So why are you wearing only half of a mask? - Because half of my face is scarred.
- Yeah, I can see that.
So why isn't the mask covering the scar? - Because I need it to protect The half of my face that isn't scarred.
Think before you talk.
- Okay.
So what are you doing here? - I have a talk show too.
And yet I never get good guests.
I have to lurk below listening to you fumble your way Through interviews like this one With the beautiful, enchanting casey wilson.
- Oh, I see what's happening here.
You're trying to poach guests.
It's not gonna happen, because I think casey-- [dramatic music.]

Thus, I have kidnapped thee.
[cackles.]
to have you on my show has been my quest your smile, your anecdotes please be my guest I will treat you right and with respect because I'm the phantom of the bang! Bang! Se [laughs wickedly.]

- [chuckles.]
haunted harpsichord being chased by a whore [laughs.]
- Ah, yes, an old standard.
- Indeed.
- Welcome, lord webber.
- You don't touch lords, but Scottrick, what a pleasure it is For me to please you by returning To your tidy television program.
- So let me get this straight.
You wrote yourself into your own musical? - Yes, that's right.
Yes.
I felt, who better to appear In this talking-show musical Than one of your talking-show guests? Namely me.
- Okay, okay, that makes sense.
And I should say, for the viewers at home, Everything we're saying right now was written-- - Has been scripted.
- Written into the musical.
- Yes, totally written into the musical, Yes, including the overlapping dialogue In which we have just engaged.
- Speaking of the book, which we have right here-- - Yes, here is the book of the musical.
You can see, it looks rather like a book That you or I would-- - the script, of course.
- Script.
- Do you mind if I peek ahead? - Oh! You'll spoil it, dear boy.
- All right, then.
But the phantom does come back, right? - Yes, absolutely.
- Okay.
Now, speaking of the phantom, Here's something I wanted to ask you-- - Hmm.
- Don't you think That some of this musical Is a little reminiscent of some of your earlier work, Specifically I want to mention the phantom of the opera.
- Oh, I say, that's a curious theorem.
I don't ascribe to it myself naturally.
I feel that this musical has something That none of my other musicals have ever had.
- What's that? - [laughs.]
a song featuring me.
- You wrote yourself a solo? - Yes.
Indeed I did.
- Okay.
Well, what's it about? - Well, let's just say, Recently, scottrick, I had occasion to take a bit of a trip.
thailand pretty cool place took an overnight bag and a large suitcase booked hotel online, flight through an agent came right here, met some pretty cool asians some of the food was so good one might say it was appe-thai-zing Both: two weeks in thailand and he's now an expert it's pretty nice except for all the smells two weeks in thailand and he really hit pay dirt all-inclusive meals and his clean hotel - found a good mcdonald's where I ate as well [applause.]
[grunts, breathing heavily.]
So there you have it.
- So you wrote that for yourself? - Yes.
I wanted to do that.
- All right.
Well, we'll be right back After a word from our sponsor.
- [laughs.]
[sad music.]
- once upon a time, I was lost lost in a snack-less land and then I found a tasty little cracker so exciting and, oh, so grand I snacked a snack of tasty cheese 'twas baked into a tiny cracker said cracker changed my life with ease and now I'm quite the mature snacker there's over 20 varieties like hot & spicy and white cheddar with 100% real cheese my life's 100% better now cheez-it is the snack I snack [applause.]
- Ah.
- So now you even wrote The commercials into this musical? - Oh, yes, I wrote every advert.
It was meant to be part of jesus christ superstar.
Of course, back then it was called Cheez-it cracker supersnacker.
- All right, that's enough.
We'll be right back.
[quirky music.]
- I fail to understand - All right.
Well, we're back here with andrew lloyd webber, The writer of the musical you're watching.

- Strange? Scottrick, is it any stranger than a roller-skating train Or the very concept of a jellicle ball? - I'm sorry, lord webber.
We gave it a shot, but singing and talking Should not mix.
From now on, no more singing.
[sad music.]
a musical episode why did I agree? as futile as a conductor trying to chase away a bee [instrument screeching.]
this whole entire show is not quite my cup of tea and so upon this I hope we all agree Both: we will never, ever sing we prefer to simply talk if you hear us sing again you can get up and take a walk talking is the perfect way to say certain things we will never, ever, ever, ever sing All: we hate singing we will never do it again this is our solemn vow you will never catch us singing once again, talking's great and is preferable to singing we will never, ever, ever, ever sing - Well, actually, I'm partial to singing as opposed to talking.
It's my preferred method of communication.
- get out of here All: we don't like to sing - Bring out the girls.
All: we will never, ever sing we prefer to simply talk if you hear us sing again you can get up and take a walk talking is the perfect way to say certain things we will never, ever, ever, ever sing - Lord webber, look The chandelier copter-- we made it.
- So beautiful.
So expensive.
- What the hell is going on? All: we will never sing [all breathing heavily.]
- Let's Let's never do that again.
- Yeah.
