Dalloway Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe, TheDalloway
Synopsis:
1923: The War is over. While Clarissa Dalloway prepares a party in Westminster, Septimus Smith is diagnosed with shell shock, and their memories and dreams magically intertwine with those of 15 other disparate souls this hot blue day in June. Conjuring the hopes and regrets of middle and upper class London, this adaptation of Virginia Woolf's celebrated map of hearts, minds and memories offers a compellingly feminine response to the aftermath of the First World War. Written and directed by Elton Townend Jones (The Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe). Performed by Rebecca Vaughan (Female Gothic, I, Elizabeth, Austen's Women).

Top of PageUnremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe, The
Synopsis:
Monroe as weve 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, her mother its all here) offers a radical interpretation of this Hollywood legend and leads us, in real time, to the moment of her death. From Dyad Productions (Austens Women, I, Elizabeth, the Diaries of Adam and Eve, Female Gothic).
