Jonathan meets the cast of Sunset Boulevard
This week on Top Billing Jonathan goes to the theatre to meet the star-studded cast of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s glorious musical, Sunset Boulevard.
Join Jonathan as he talks to Paul Warwick Griffin about why he chose to direct this particular musical which is much darker than other Andrew Lloyd Webber works. He also spends some time with Angela Kilian, who plays Norma Desmond, and Jonathan Roxmouth, who plays Joe Gillis, to find out what they enjoyed most about the characters they play and what the audience can expect when going to see this award-winning musical.
More about Sunset Boulevard: The story 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. Her glamour has faded in all but her mind. When she meets struggling Hollywood screen-writer Joe Gillis in dramatic circumstances, their subsequent passionate and volatile relationship leads to an unforeseen and tragic conclusion.
