Oper Bonn zeigt SUNSET BOULEVARD mit Pia Douwes als Norma Desmond
Norma Desmond hatte ihre große Zeit, als die Bilder zwar schon laufen, aber noch nicht sprechen konnten. Dass der Stummfilm schon langst dem Tonfilm weichen musste, will die exzentrische Diva einfach nicht wahrhaben. In ihrer luxuriosen Villa am beruhmten Sunset Boulevard, unweit der Hollywood- Traumfabriken, hat sie sich ihre eigene Realitat geschaffen und wartet auf eine gunstige Gelegenheit fur ihr Comeback. Als der junge Drehbuchautor Joe Gillis zufallig auf ihr verwildertes Anwesen gelangt, gerat er in den Sog ihrer faszinierenden Personlichkeit - mit todlichem Ausgang.

Vorschau: SUNSET BOULEVARD ab Herbst mit Pia Douwes in Dortmund
Spannend wie ein Krimi erzahlt Billy Wilder in seinem 1950 gedrehten Klassiker Sunset Boulevard (Boulevard der Dammerung) die Geschichte einer großen Tragodin, deren Karriere durch den technischen Fortschritt schlagartig endete. Rund 40 Jahre spater macht Andrew Lloyd Webber aus diesem Stoff ein Musical, das mittlerweile selbst ein Klassiker geworden ist. Der Oper Dortmund ist es gelungen, die international gefeierte Pia Douwes fur diese Rolle zu gewinnen. Regie fuhrt Gil Mehmert, der nach Jesus Christ Superstar abermals einen Webber-Welterfolg in Dortmund in Szene setzt.

Rialto Chatter: Is ROCKY Musical Headed to The Winter Garden?
Immediately, speculation began at what might replace MAMMA MIA! in the theatre, which was previously home to CATS. Today, Michael Riedel reports that Broadway might see a Spring transfer of the ROCKY musical, now running in Germany. He writes that '"Rocky das Musical" cost $20 million to stage in Germany.
