Sunset Boulevard is based on the 1950’s film of the same name. Originally premiering at the Adelphi Theatre in 1993 in London’s West End, Sunset Boulevard ran for almost four years, being seen by nearly two million people. The show premiered in America at the Shubert Theatre in Los Angeles in December 1993, starring Glenn Close as Norma Desmond. The musical became an instant success, transferring to the Minskoff Theatre on Broadway in 1994. At the time, the show had been given the biggest advance in Broadway history at $37.5 million.
The Broadway production won seven Tonys at the 1995 Tony
