Nicole Scherzinger at Sunset Blvd at 2024 Broadway.
Nicole Scherzinger brings her acclaimed interpretation of legendary diva Norma Desmond to Broadway in a new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Sunset Boulevard." First announced in January, the revival begins previews on September 28 and opens to the public on October 20.
The “X Factor” judge and Pussycat Dolls singer has big shoes to fill with her role as the fading movie star, an iconic role played in the past by the likes of Glenn Close, Betty Buckley and Patti LuPone. But given the rave reviews she’s received for her performance in the West End, where it had a limited 16-week run in 2023, she has nothing to worry about.
The New York Times praised her “career-defining performance” and the Washington Post called her “the perfect Norma Desmond.”
