Marlene - Arnhem - Musis & Stadstheater

Buy tickets

Venue: Musis & Stadstheater

Fame and mystification. That’s what it’s about. The psyche of a myth. Sight into her soul. Sven Ratzke plays Marlene. Is Marlene. The dream interpreter of the film goddess. The world-famous singer. The German diva. Marlene Dietrich. The woman of the big emotions and the intimate shows. Of the villainity and the humour. The woman of whom Bomans once said: ‘If only my wife had one leg like that.’ Marlene is mystery and glamour. Madness and desire. A dazzling co-production with the renowned Renaissance Theatre in Berlin. With costume designer Ian Griffiths. And beautiful music. About the woman who was adored and reviled. Marlene is “a moving celebration of the woman behind the myth,” sighed The New York Times. Thanks to Sven Ratzke. The man about whom our programmer Floor once said: ‘If only I had one buttock like that.’)
