The hit London revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Sunset Boulevard is heading to Broadway later this year and bringing star Nicole Scherzinger and the rest of the West End principal cast with it.
As Deadline’s Baz Bamigboye revealed before Christmas, Scherzinger will make her Broadway debut reprising her acclaimed performance as Norma Desmond.
Although production dates and venue are still to be announced, producers said today that the musical will star Scherzinger along with her West End castmates Tom Francis (as Joe Gillis), Grace Hodgett-Young (Betty Schaefer) and David Thaxton (Max Von Mayerling).
In addition to preview and opening night dates, additional casting will be announced shortly. Directed by Jamie Lloyd (A Doll’s House) and produced by his Jamie Lloyd Company, Sunset Boulevard began performances in London last September, receiving critical acclaim for its streamlined reimagining and what The New York Time’s called Scherzinger’s “career-defining performance.” Based on director Billy Wilder’s 1950 cinematic masterpiece, Sunset Boulevard was adapted for the musical stage in 1993 by composer Lloyd Webber and book writers/lyricists Don Black and Christopher Hampton.
