Curve Leicester has announced the return of its award-winning production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical masterpiece Sunset Boulevard, as part of its reopening plans.

Ria Jones and Danny Mac will be reprising their roles as Norma Desmond and Joe Gillis, respectively.
The concert version will be Directed by Nikolai Foster will also feature a 16-piece orchestra.
The theatre, which was forced suddenly to close its doors to the public on 16th March, will open again this autumn for spectacularly re-imagined, socially distanced concert performances of acclaimed Made at Curve productions, using the building’s unique theatre design.
By raising the walls between its theatre spaces, Curve will reopen as a 533-seat socially-distanced auditorium, with audiences enjoying live performances from all four sides of the stage, fully realising the ambition of architect Rafael Viñoly’s original design.
A triple-revolve, donated by Sir Cameron Mackintosh, will help to transform the space to create an epic experience for audience members.
Curve’s reopening plans are only possible due to grant funding received from the government’s Culture Recovery Fund and the ongoing support of Arts Council England and Leicester City Council.
Sunset Boulevard In Concert will run from 14th December 2020 – 3rd January 2021.
