"Stripping away the myth of Marilyn Monroe, we are left with a raw look at the woman as she drifts through the memories of her life and her encounters with lovers and luminaries," said Garsson. "Leah Sessa brings a dynamic mix of sensuality, intelligence and despair to the role as she confides in the audience on the night of her death."

Marilyn Monroe was the most famous movie star in the world, famous for all the wrong reasons: her image, her sex appeal, her frailties and failings; for her love affairs, her lateness on set and her drug dependency. For decades the sensation surrounding her death has eclipsed the sensation of her life. But no one knows what events led up to that fateful night in August 1962 when Marilyn was only 36 years old. Until now. The Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe, recognizes a Marilyn never before seen: alone in only her dressing gown; no glitz, no glamour, no masks.
