welcome to our world premiere
supporting CITIZENs
The Citizens Theatre and Royal Lyceum Theatre are proud to present the World Premiere of Marilyn, a new play by Scottish playwright Sue Glover. We are thrilled to be working in partnership again, bringing together the talent and creativity of Scotland’s two major producing houses to present this landmark new play.
SPONSORS
Sue Glover has achieved widespread critical acclaim for her writing and it has been a privilege for us to work with her to present this latest piece, which is certain to be a highlight of the theatrical year and a significant addition to our dramatic canon. Marilyn is not simply a biographical snapshot of a moment in history but a thought-provoking examination of the pressures of celebrity and a raw human story of love, insecurity and betrayal.
