ASOLO Rep Adds MARILYN: FOREVER BLONDE To '10-'11 Season
Asolo Rep adds to 2010--1011 season line-up with Marilyn: Forever Blonde, opening in June 2011. Named "Theatrical Event of the Year 2008" and "Outstanding Road Show 2009," this multiple award-winning play by Greg Thompson features the stunning Sunny Thompson whose performance has been described in reviews as the ultimate Monroe.
Marilyn: Forever Blonde is the Marilyn Monroe story in her own words, by Greg Thompson. Shortly before her untimely death Marilyn Monroe posed for what would be her final photo session. Marilyn: Forever Blonde is a recreation of what might have been Marilyn's last chance to tell her own story in her own words. Conceived by award winning producer and writer Greg Thompson, the script has been painstakingly researched from hundreds of quotes from Marilyn herself and the result is two hours in Marilyn's presence. These are the final thoughts of a little girl who became a legend and in turned could never be loved or accepted for herself. The play is funny, sad, witty, titillating, sometimes scandalous and in the end heartbreaking as we watch the desperation of a woman lost in a world of Hollywood make-believe.
The show will run in the Mertz Theatre from June 18 - July 17, 2011.
