MARILYN-AFTER Set for United Solo Festival

Marilyn-After imagines Marilyn Monroe coming back to life fifty years after her passing to tell us about her career, her loves and her untimely death.

Nonnie Griffin, the 81 year old star of stage and screen, has performed Marilyn-After to great response in Toronto and continues to tour Canada with the show before heading to New York City. Griffin has enjoyed an illustrious career in Canadian stage, radio and television, working alongside such notable actors as William Shatner, Lorne Greene and Peter O'Toole along the way.

"Marilyn Monroe continues to fascinate people of all ages, even some fifty years after her death," says Griffin. "No other actress has held such a place in the affections of the public. To this day, people remain grieved and baffled by her sudden death in 1962. She was just 36 years of age."

Griffin, who bears a striking resemblance to Monroe, brings her effortlessly to life in an evening of shocking truths, mitigated by touches of wit and humour, for which Monroe was famous.

Marilyn-After will be performed at the Studio Theatre on Theatre Row on October 3 at 4pm as part of the United Solo Festival.
