World Premiere

Oregon Ballet takes us into the intimate inner world of pop culture icon Marilyn Monroe in this beautiful world premiere. Created by Australian choreographer Dani Rowe, whose career includes an illustrious Helpmann Award and work with Christopher Wheeldon's Morphoses company, the piece follows on from acclaimed works she has created for San Francisco Ballet, Royal New Zealand Ballet and others. Complementing Rowe's vision is an original score by Shannon Rugani.

The piece invites the audience into the mind of Marilyn Monroe at 36 years old, reflecting back on the life she lived and the memories that shaped her journey. No longer just a Hollywood icon, she emerges as a woman reclaiming her own story, considering it all through the one perspective that really counts: hers.
