Andrew Lloyd Webber eyes future for Susan Boyle
(CNN) -- She "dreamed a dream" on the TV show Britain's Got Talent, but could Susan Boyle be living that dream as the star of a West End show?

It's a possibility, according to a spokeswoman for Andrew Lloyd Webber, the award-winning composer and producer of more than a dozen musicals including The Phantom of the Opera and Cats.

Lloyd Webber recently bumped into Simon Cowell, the music and TV producer behind Britain's Got Talent and American Idol, and "discussions took place" about future possibilities for Boyle, said the spokeswoman.

"He's an admirer of her talent," she said. "There's certainly been no firm offer made (but) discussions about Susan have been had."

9. "Mame" would work for Ms. Boyle, also
if she can play a comedic role.

8. She could do better than that..
Webber is a hack.. Plus I love how Webber and Cowell are discussing this womans future in public. Maybe they ought to talk to her.

13. I wish her well tonight
I hope she continues to shine and moves along in the competition. I wonder what song she's going to sing? Anyone hear any rumors?
