''The Likes of Us'' is a musical with lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The original book was by Leslie Thomas.〔Citron, Stephen, ''Sondheim and Lloyd-Webber: The New Musical''. New York: Oxford University Press 2001. ISBN 0-19-509601-0, pp. 111-113〕 It is based on the true story of Thomas John Barnardo, a philanthropist who founded homes for destitute children. During his lifetime, nearly 60,000 children were rescued and provided with training that prepared them to be self-sufficient.
