Marilyn

This new ballet production brings the glamour and complexity of Hollywood's golden age to the stage through the story of Marilyn Monroe. Created through a collaboration between BalletMet, Tulsa Ballet, and Oregon Ballet Theatre, the performance features an original score by Shannon Rugani and choreography by Dani Rowe. The production explores both the celebrated moments and the personal struggles that defined Monroe's life in the spotlight. Marilyn is performed at the Davidson Theatre in the Riffe Center, making it an accessible option for families looking to experience live dance in Columbus. The ballet offers a theatrical introduction to both classical dance and a fascinating chapter of entertainment history. This is a great choice for older kids and teens with an interest in dance, theater, or mid-century culture, as well as for adults who appreciate the art form.
