Glamorous Hollywood screen siren Marilyn Monroe. Her name evokes iconic associations in our collective consciousness. From Andy Warhol’s silkscreen paintings, the cheeky song for JFK’s birthday to her white skirt billowing over a New York City subway grating. A pin-up dream come true. The foundation of Marilyn the icon was her unique blend of childlike innocence and provocative feminine sexuality.

Despite of her in indisputable fame as a “Bombshell” and one of the world’s famous actresses in the 1940s, Marilyn largely contributed to set the standards of the Jazz and Swing golden age in the late 1940s. Her iconic breathy brassy singing voice singing “My Heart belongs to Daddy”, “I’m through with Love” or the eternal “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend” are History. She also reinterpreted many jazz standards and star in world’s famous movie musicals.

Today after 56 years from her death, actress and jazz singer VIVIANA ZARBO will pay Marilyn homage with an evening of jazz standards and musical songs related to Marilyn’s persona and Era: With a glittering assemble of brilliant musicians & original arrangements.
