Broadway’s greatest star has returned to the stage and it is not to be missed. This exciting new production makes it seem as if we never said goodbye to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Tony award winning, Sunset Boulevard. Settle into your seat as the sweeping orchestra begins the overture; you are about to be transported back to 1949 Paramount Studios and the anticipation of Glenn Close in the role of Norma Desmond is palpable. As Close takes the stage, her entrance does not disappoint, with applause for minutes before she even speaks a word. Every word thereafter is an acting masterpiece. The highly awarded actress (including three Tony Awards) shows her acting chops in this show, playing this fragile, delusional, tragic, yet strong faded silent film star. This comes as no surprise, considering that this is her fourth go-around as Norma, a role that won her a Tony award in the original Broadway production in 1994.
You won’t want to miss Glenn Close uttering the manic words, “Alright, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up.” Contact your Attaché to catch this limited run before it is too late.
