The Unremarkable Death Of Marilyn Monroe

From Dyad Productions [‘Austen’s Women’, ‘Female Gothic’, ‘I, Elizabeth’, ‘The Diaries Of Adam & Eve’).



Monroe as we’ve never seen her before: alone in her bedroom, in dressing gown and slippers; no glitz, no glamour, no masks. Overdosed on pills, the woman behind the icon unravels her remarkable life and bares all, revealing a biting intelligence, a frustrated talent and an imperfect body. This stark confessional [DiMaggio, Gable, Miller, Hyde, her mother – it’s all here] offers a radical interpretation of this Hollywood legend and leads us, in real time, to the very moment of her death.
