This show has now concluded its current run
Sunset Boulevard Norma Desmond was the greatest silent movie star of them all, until the advent of the talkies made her a has-been. Joe Gillis was a struggling screenwriter until, by chance, he pulled his car into the driveway of 10086 Sunset Boulevard, home to the reclusive Miss Desmond. This chance encounter would change their lives, forever. Craig Revel Horwood's poignant, compelling and inventive new production sold out prior to the opening of its run at the Watermill Theatre, Newbury this summer and now transfers to the West End's intimate Comedy Theatre. Andrew Lloyd Webber's stunning musical adaptation of Billy Wilder's classic 1950 film captures the haunting world of the Golden Age of Hollywood. With book and lyrics by the Oscar-winning partnership of Don Black (Born Free, Diamonds are Forever) and Christopher Hampton (Les Liaisons Dangereuses and Atonement). Kathryn Evans stars as Norma Desmond, with Ben Goddard reprising his role as Joe Gillis. Dave Willetts joins the cast to play Norma's Butler, Max von Meyerling. |
