Sunset Boulevard

In her mansion on Sunset Boulevard, faded silent-movie star, Norma Desmond lives in a fantasy world filled with nostalgia from her shimmering early career. Into this reclusive world stumbles Joe Gillies, an impoverished screen writer in need of a change of fortune, and an escape from the debt collectors. Persuaded to work on a script that Norma believes will put her back in front of the cameras, Joe is quickly seduced by a life of Hollywood luxury, but beneath the glitz and glamour the cracks begin to show.

Sunset Boulevard is a compelling story of love and obsession. Based on the acclaimed Billy Wilder film, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s award-winning musical features many much-loved songs including Sunset Boulevard, With One Look and The Perfect Year. Rarely available on the amateur circuit, Trinity Players are proud to be bringing this majestic musical to Sutton Coldfield for the very first time.
