Renowned British soprano to embark on China tour playing Sunset BLVD

The British diva soprano Sarah Brightman will be playing Andrew Lloyd Webber's Sunset BLVD at the AIA Grand Theatre in Shanghai from April 18 to 26.

The production will go on its China tour to Beijing, Wuhan in Hubei province and Shenzhen in Guangdong province.

Adapted from the Billy Wilder movie in 1950, it is about Norma Desmond, a faded silent film star who yearns to return to the silver screen. Her only hope lies in a struggling screenwriter who can't sell his scripts to the Hollywood studios until their dangerous and captivating relationship leads to disaster.
