She first played washed-up silent screen star Norma Desmond in musical Sunset Boulevard on Broadway 20 years ago and it’s safe to assume Glenn Close loved every minute of it.
The 68-year-old actress has just announced that she’s going to take on the role once again.
Glenn is to star in a new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s play, which is based on Billy Wilder’s classic film, at the English National Opera’s Coliseum theatre.
She’ll appear in 43 performances of the ‘semi-staged’ play when it opens in April 2016.
