Haunted by her memories and dreams, movie star Norma Desmond yearns to return to the big screen. A struggling screenwriter who can’t sell his scripts to the Hollywood studios may be her only hope, until their dangerous and captivating relationship leads to disaster. Drenched in champagne and cynicism, Sunset Boulevard focuses the lens on the ambitions and frustrations of its characters and puts their intoxicating need for fame and adoration in stark close-up.
"Although very talented people, the play was not very interesting and many times the acting was noticeable forced. I though it was overacted at times.The use of the cameras was innovative and fun. It was not what I expected a broadway show to be."

Delightful singing, staging but it’s ALW. He’s not to my liking.
"The acting, singing and visual effects were superb. The music was ok. I’m just not an Andrew Lloyd Weber fan. "

BORING
"It was a dull, boring show. I have seen Sunset Blvd in the past and really enjoyed it. This performance was comparable to a boring monologue. "

I expect more.
"Nicole S. has an unbelievable voice but I expected more from a Bway show. There was no set and the music wasn’t great."

Amazing vocals but painstakingly SLOW.
"Didn’t love this interpretation. Too simple. Really takes away from the story. Nicole’s vocals were amazing! See something else on Broadway with staging, costumes etc. The only Broadway quality thing about it were Nicole’s vocals!"

Great performances in a dark, gimmicky production.
"Nichole Scherzinger was transcendent, but the production was so dark (both literally and figuratively), that, for me, it detracted from the show and the overall experience. "

Not for me
"Very talented team but it was a little slow, hard to understand what they were saying and overly dramatic. I think maybe I prefer the comedy over the tragedy. "

Dark and dank
"Main characters were amazing and powerful singing. Set was lacking and often detracting from performances! Not sure this movie was broadway production worthy! Very talented artistic performance hope to see them in future productions of a different genre!"

Overrated
"Nicole is an amazing talent, but way too young for the role. The inclusion of the “ movie-like” projection was, at first, interesting, but then became annoying.
Please note, I’m a senior citizen who might not be hip enough for this production. Earlier adaptations were clearly superior."

Very dark production
"The performances of the lead actors was truly amazing, and I am glad I had the opportunity to see them perform the roles. However, I can not recommend the show to others because it is extremely dark and brooding production that is overwhelmingly sad and distressing."

This show was not needed
"I was not impressed. The music was just okay. Without any sets, the stage reminded me of a lesser type of a production you would see in a rural community theater."
