Juliet Cadzow, known for playing Edie McCredie in the BBC children’s show Balamory, has undergone a dramatic transformation for her new role as Norma Desmond in the stage production Sunset Boulevard: The Backstage Cut. Fans expressed surprise at her unrecognisable appearance compared with her iconic look from the early 2000s series. The production, directed by Morag Fullarton, explores the making of Billy Wilder’s 1950 film and features additional cast members John Kielty, Mark McDonnell and Frances Thorburn. Cadzow reflected fondly on her time on Balamory, noting the show’s lasting impact on viewers now in their twenties.
