Overview

MUSIC by Andrew Lloyd Webber

BOOK and LYRICS by Don Black and Christopher Hampton

Based on the film by Billy Wilder

In her mansion on Sunset Boulevard, faded silent-screen icon, Norma Desmond, lives in a fantasy world. Impoverished screenwriter Joe Gillis, on the run from debt collectors, stumbles into her reclusive domain. Persuaded to work on Norma’s “masterpiece,” a film script that she believes will put her back in front of the cameras, Joe is seduced by her and her luxurious lifestyle. Joe becomes entrapped in a claustrophobic existence until his love for another woman leads him to try and break free with dramatic consequences.

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Tony Award-winning score includes the lush, swelling standards: "As If We Never Said Goodbye," "With One Look," and "The Perfect Year."
