“Sometimes, it takes one icon to take measure of another.”

— The New York Times (Featured Oct 6, 2023 — read here)

 

This extraordinary homage to Marilyn Monroe is based on the actress’s final interview, two days before her death. In a riveting solo stage performance, the renowned French actress Isabelle Adjani engages in a surreal dialogue with Monroe, oscillating in tone between an intimate conversation with a friend and a formal press interview—with moments of both voice-over and direct audience address. In her richly nuanced monologue, featuring an exact replica of the black Dior dress Monroe wore at her final photo session, Adjani interprets an icon while exploring the broader complexities of stardom, identity, and legacy.

 

The performances at FIAF conclude the worldwide run of Marilyn’s Vertigo, making this your last chance to see the show!

 

There will be a Champagne toast following the Friday, October 13 performance to celebrate the closing night of Crossing The Line Festival.
