A new and intimate production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s highly acclaimed musical Sunset Boulevard, which played a sell-out season at The Watermill Theatre, arrives in the West End.
Based on Billy Wilder’s classic film, the musical has book and lyrics by Don Black and Christopher Hampton. The production is directed and choreographed by Craig Revel Horwood.
The show depicts the faded glamor of the former Hollywood icon Norma Desmond, who’s now living in isolation with only memories for company. When a struggling young screenwriter appears at her crumbling mansion, she demands a second chance in the limelight.
