Marilyn & Ella
Sun 15, 22 & 29 Nov 2009

Following its sell-out success critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Festival in 2006 and a similarly rapturous reception during its London première at the Theatre Royal Stratford East in 2008, Marilyn & Ella arrives at the Apollo Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue in the West End for a strictly limited run of Sundays.

Interspersed with numerous hit songs from the era in which they ruled, including ‘I Got Rhythm’, ‘My Funny Valentine’, ‘Every Time We Say Goodbye’, ‘Mack the Knife’ and ‘Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend’, Marilyn & Ella is a narrative of discovery, in which a true story of an inspiring friendship is brought vividly to life, featuring two of the most iconic females that ever lived.

“A touching and thought-provoking evening.” 

“A funny, stirring and warm-hearted two-hander.”  

“Intelligent and warm, with a lightness of touch that segues effortlessly from racism and sexual abuse into adultery and feminism without missing a beat.” 

“Writer and critic Bonnie Greer has created in Marilyn & Ella a show that entertains, informs and does absolute justice to two of the icons of American entertainment.”
