Show notes
In February 1961 Marilyn Monroe was sectioned by her psychiatrist. One Night with Marilyn is a theatrical exploration of this harrowing time mostly unknown by her millions of fans. Claire-Monique Martin and Charlotte Reidie, who both play Marilyn in the play, talk to Donna Freed about their roles and the themes of mental illness in the play by PT Rose. It is shocking to think that Queen Elizabeth and Marilyn Monroe were born in the same year. Donna Freed will also has a role in the play which will be showing as a staged reading on 26 September at the Drayton Arms at 2:30pm. The reading at the Drayton Arms is part of a year-long, international project commemorating the death of Marilyn Monroe 60 years ago.
