Critics Say
Sunset Boulevard
Critics hail Jamie Lloyd's stripped-down revival as electrifying and bold, with Nicole Scherzinger delivering a transcendent, career-defining performance as Norma Desmond, though some find the cinematic staging gimmicky and overwrought.
Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club
Critics are divided on this immersive revival: some praise Redmayne and Rankin's performances and the stunning theater transformation, while others feel the elaborate pre-show spectacle and directorial choices overshadow the musical's darker themes.
