Marilyn

One hundred years have passed since the birth of Marilyn Monroe. One hundred years since the birth of a myth. The South Bohemian Theatre Ballet presents an original dance production about a woman who became an icon of desire and a symbol of the American dream. Behind her legendary smile was fragility, behind her success a feeling of loneliness, behind admiration deep pain. Marilyn longed for love, recognition, and freedom, yet her life turned into a dazzling and cruel ride between the heights of fame and painful falls. When on stage she comes alive, and like a woman of flesh and blood, she is passionate, vulnerable, and untamed. Marilyn’s story is reenacted by the vocalist of a live band thus infusing the dance performance with sensuality, energy, and the feel of Hollywood’s golden age.

Marilyn, as the whole world knows her.
And perhaps also as you have never known her.
