The plot's big twist (which won't be revealed here) is likewise beautifully carried off, providing the show's one hair-raising thrill. But between these two are far too few memorable moments. It's just not in Lloyd Webber to deliver low-key satisfactions. Big sweeping melodies are what he does best, and here the strain of his self- imposed leash suffocates the drama.
