LW Entertainment

LW Entertainment Ltd. (formerly the Really Useful Group Ltd. (RUG)) is an international company set up in 1977 by Andrew Lloyd Webber. It is involved in theatre, film, television, video and concert productions, merchandising, magazine publishing, records and music publishing. The company's original name is inspired by a phrase from the children's book series The Railway Series (which also inspired Webber to create Starlight Express) in which Thomas the Tank Engine and the other engines are referred to as "Really Useful Engines".
