"I saw the original production of Sunset Boulevard and there’s nothing about this version that resembles that. This is fresh and innovative. Nicole Scherzinger is a revelation. Would highly recommend this show. "

Engrossing. Intoxicating. Fantastic.
"I was not very familiar with the story of Sunset Boulevard; I had not seen the movie prior to watching the show. My only exposure was a few of the promotion images and headlines promising an incredible performance from Nicole Scherzinger. The headlines did not do the show justice.
Every member of this cast gives a breath taking performance. Jamie Lloyd's direction is spectacular, adding wonderful elements of silent film to the show. The cinematography and music is breathtaking and beautiful. Scherzinger and Tom Francis are marvelous in their roles. Grace Hodgett Young and David Thaxton give heart-wrenching displays of humanity.
I left the theater needing to listen to the music more, dive into the story, and be captivated by the acting. What a magnificent show.
Bravo!"

Standing Ovation During Performance!
"Love Broadway shows, specifically musicals. I have been to NY four times now and seen several. Sunset Boulevard blew me away! The set, the lighting, the starkness of costuming set up a unique and beautifully tragic retelling of Norma Desmond and Joe Gillis’s story. The use of the “movie camera” was wonderful. Loved the videotaping that occurred after intermission. Outstanding idea! The orchestration was phenomenal. But the voices were so incredible that I found tears running down my cheeks more than once. Met and exceeded all expectations!!! Truly fantastic! I have never been to a show where a standing ovation occurred during the actual performance. Nicole Scherzinger was amazing!! All the cast was truly inspiring. Thank you for giving us new ways to dream. "

Amazing, creative and absolutely beautifully done.
"I've been fortunate enough to see most of Broadway's top shows, but Sunset Boulevard stands out as a truly mesmerizing and stunning theatrical experience. Nicole is incredible—her vocal range, beauty, and commanding stage presence make it nearly impossible to look away. The dialogue and chemistry between the cast members are evident, making the story unfolding before the audience completely believable. All four lead cast members delivered superb performances, and the addition of the steady cam creates an extraordinary connection for the audience, amplifying the raw emotions and feelings pouring from the actors on stage. Bravo!"

Spectacularly unexpected
"For a play about delusion, no happiness or hope, it was acted and staged so well it was an outstanding experience. The camera work and innovation perfectly complimented the stark and minimalist set and costumes. The sense of foreboding built throughout the show. It was clear the cast gave their all.because they looked drained . The start of the second act was unexpected and so well done."

Once in a blue moon production with spectacular vocal performances!
"I saw "Sunset Boulevard" in its second week back in November with a friend, and brought my husband to New York in April for our anniversary so that I could see the Nicole Scherzinger-led production a second time. The show is just that good. Every time she sings on that stage, one feels like it is a once-in-a-blue-moon vocal EXPERIENCE. Her voice is spot-on, nuanced and commanding. Scherzinger's comedic moments and facial expressions have grown in the past few months. The entire cast is top notch; kudos to Tom Francis for such a strong performance, as well.
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to see the show a second time, but I truly won the lottery in that I was lucky enough to be at the April 25 evening performance with both Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber and Jamie Lloyd in the house. What a thrill to experience the production a second time AND have the opportunity to see both the director and composer onstage afterwards.
I'm looking forward to this year's Tony season. Whether the cast and production is nominated/awarded by the Tony voters as much as I feel they should be, I know that Scherzinger, Francis, Lloyd and company have already won by producing such a startling and emotional Broadway musical. I can't imagine any other production winning out over them.
If the Hollywood powers that be don't throw out their initial movie casting thoughts and instead take this opportunity to headline Scherzinger and Francis on film, it will be a loss for all of us.
Bravo to the entire SUNSET BOULEVARD Broadway production."

Great show
"Aside from me not being able to fit in my seat, I'm 6'8" with super long legs lol, the show was awesome! I've had a huge crush on Nicole Scherzinger since I was a teenager, so seeing her perform in her debut Broadway show was amazing. Hopefully she'll perform in more plays in the future. All in all I would definitely recommend this show to everyone. If you're a fan of Andrew Lloyd Weber or you're looking for a great musical to take your date/significant other/partner to this show is for you."
"I didn’t know what to expect, but I really enjoyed the play. I enjoyed the way the story was told. There weren’t elaborate customers or set decorations, but the play didn’t need them. All of the actors gave wonderful performances! I’m so glad my daughter suggested we see it! "

A magical night at the theatre.
"I saw the original with Glen Close and it was like seeing an entirely different show. The director's interpretation was genius. The first sign that I was being transported to a magical show was when Nicole Scherzinger sang and tears started spilling from my eyes. Not because something terrible happened it was from sheer joy on how powerful and beautiful her voice and interpretation of the song was. The same is to be said about the rest of the cast. This is the best of the best. With that being said it was absolutely fantastic. "

Nicole Scherzinger, where have you been for so long
"I've seen a lot of musicals, but this tops them all. Imaginative, loud, and quiet at the same time. The first ten minutes of the second act—I've never seen anything like this. An incredibly good cast, and Nicole Scherzinger? Where have you been all these years? For me, the best leading role of all time! THANK YOU"

About
Sunset Boulevard
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.
