As BroadwayWorld previously reported, Sunset Boulevard, starring Nicole Scherzinger, will transfer to Broadway this year. Sunset Boulevard will play Broadway's St. James Theatre with previews beginning September 28 for a October 20 opening night.

Check out a video of Nicole Scherzinger announcing she is 'home at last' in NYC ahead of rehearsals starting. 

The  production, which features book and lyrics by Don Black and Christopher Hampton,   based on the Paramount Pictures film directed by Billy Wilder, recently received 11  Olivier Award nominations including Best Musical Revival, has won Evening Standard  Awards for Lloyd and Scherzinger as well as seven WhatsOnStage Awards.

SUNSET BLVD: THE ALBUM recorded live at the Savoy Theatre in London's West End, is set for global release in October, featuring the London cast. 

Joining Scherzinger on Broadway will be her acclaimed London co-stars, all of whom received Olivier Award nominations for their performances, Tom Francis as 'Joe Gillis,' Grace Hodgett-Young as 'Betty Schaefer,' and Olivier Award winner David Thaxton as 'Max Von Mayerling.' 

Haunted by her memories and dreams, movie star Norma Desmond (Scherzinger) yearns to return to the big screen. A struggling screenwriter (Francis) who can't sell his scripts to the Hollywood studios may be her only hope, until their dangerous and compelling relationship leads to disastrous circumstances. Drenched in champagne and cynicism, Sunset Boulevard scrutinizes the ambitions and frustrations of its characters and their intoxicating need for fame and adoration.
