Marilyn Comes To The Park Theatre

Following a successful run in 2014 at London's King's Head Theatre, Hello Norma Jeane by Dylan Costello will be presented at the Park Theatre from 23rd February 2016.

It's Spring 2003 and Essex grandmother Lynnie has escaped her nursing home and fled 5000 miles across the Atlantic to Hollywood, Los Angeles, where she plans to reveal to the world her deepest secret - that she is Marilyn Monroe, alive and well after faking her death decades before.

As her gay grandson Joe turns up to take her home, he finds himself embroiled in his grandmother’s scheme, questioning his sanity as he wonders whether he really can be the grandson of Marilyn Monroe.

But is Lynnie really Marilyn? Or just a crazy old lady wanted to avoid ending her days alone inside a nursing home? There’s only one way that the truth will be revealed in this funny drama that is full of surprises.

Hello Norma Jeane will star Vicki Michelle (Allo, Allo) as Norma Jeane, Jamie Hutchins as Joe, Farrel Hegarty as Marilyn and Peter MacPherson as Bobby. The play will be directed by Matthew Gould.

Hello Norma Jeane runs at the Park Theatre from 23rd February - 19 March 2016.
