Sunset Boulevard at The Bristol Hippodrome 9th-13th January 2018
Posted on: 03 Nov 2017Sunset Boulevard will be at the Bristol Hippodrome from the 9th to the 13th January 2018.
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Tony Award-winning masterpiece Sunset Boulevard stars Ria Jones, who received standing ovations every night when performing at the London Coliseum, as Norma Desmond and Strictly Come Dancing’s Danny Mac as Joe Gillis.
In her mansion on Sunset Boulevard, faded silent-screen goddess Norma Desmond lives in a fantasy world. Impoverished screenwriter Joe Gillis, on the run from debt collectors, stumbles into her reclusive world and is seduced by her and her luxurious lifestyle. Joe becomes trapped in a claustrophobic world until his love for another woman leads him to try and break free, with dramatic consequences.
With its much-loved score (including Sunset Boulevard, With One Look, As If We Never Said Goodbye, The Greatest Star Of Alland The Perfect Year) this production promises to be a spectacular event.
Tickets are available from £22 online here.
