Event Description:
Moonlight Stage Productions presents Sunset Boulevard. Andrew Lloyd Webber's masterpiece receives its San Diego Regional Premiere at the Moonlight. Sunset Boulevard weaves a magnificent tale of faded glory and unfulfilled ambition. Silent movie star Norma Desmond longs for a return to the big screen, having been discarded by tinsel town with the advent of "talkies." When she meets struggling Hollywood screenwriter Joe Gillis in dramatic circumstances, their subsequent passionate and volatile relationship leads to an unforeseen and tragic conclusion. Based on the film noir classic by Billy Wilder, it received seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical and features some of Andrew Lloyd Webber's most soaring melodies. Sunset Boulevard is a spell-binding fable of dreams along the street where movies were born.
