"It's hard for me to judge if I've pulled that off, but I mean these songs had to be the best songs I've ever written because Paddington deserves it to be."
"I had a mild panic afterwards of not knowing whether I could do it or not," he said, "But then I just focused on the actual material and started taking inspiration from the books and movies, and it just never felt hard really and I never had a moment where I didn't know what to do musically because the source material is that good."
"They were filming the marmalade machine in Peru minutes from where I was writing the musical, I got a bit flustered that Paddington and Aunt Lucy were right there."
"We were tasked with looking after this bear, you know, that was on his tag around his neck. And, I feel like that's what we've all tried to do over the last five years, just take care as best we can of this amazing story and character.
"So we're very very excited for everyone else to to see what we've done."
