Her husband, the actor Peter Land, said on Twitter that she died Sunday evening at the Princess Grace Hospital. He said she “leaves behind a huge legacy and is adored by many.”
Lynne’s many credits included the phenomenally successful “Cats” and “Phantom of the Opera”.
Lloyd Webber tweeted in tribute: “Three generations of the British musical owe so much to you.”
