Description:
Her name at birth was Norma Jean Baker. Her mother gave her to a foster family. She lived with different people, and often was mistreated. At age sixteen Norma Jean married a sailor but she soon ended that marriage. She changed her hair color from brown to gold and changed her name to Marilyn Monroe. She wanted to be an actress and appeared in a number of Hollywood movies. By the time she had reached the age of twenty-six, her talent and beauty earned her a place as one of America's leading movie stars. But success and fame were not enough to make her happy. She died at the age of thirty-six, probably from an overdose of pills. Able to Be is a mini opera, composed in an attempt to show something of the real person behind the icon of Marilyn Monroe: ”Fame will go by, and so long, I've had you fame, that's not where I live.! I've always know it was a fickle!” The soundtrack contains the original voice of M.Monroe, from various interviews.
