Marilyn

April 4 – 13, 2025 | Newmark Theatre

WORLD PREMIERE

Dani Rowe

In Dani Rowe’s gorgeously wrought world premiere, 36-year-old Marilyn Monroe looks back at her life and memories through the only lens that matters: her own.

Marilyn features an original score by Shannon Rugani, iconic costumes by Emma Kingsbury, and an arresting set design by Emma Kingsbury and David Finn. This full-length ballet promises powerful storytelling, fusing realism and dreams.
