 : Marilyn Monroe and husband Arthur Miller, London


Marilyn Monroe and husband Arthur Miller, London

Sep. 09, 1956 - Marilyn Joins The Re-Formed Watergate Theatre Club: Marilyn Monroe paid five shillings last night to join a London theatre club. She was the first member of the re-formed Watergate Theatre Club, which had to close its theatre in the Strand in February because of a road-widening scheme. Now the club is to put on its plays at the Comedy Theatre, off the Haymarket. Last night Marilyn sat on the stage of the Comedy and listened to her husband. Arthur Miller, talk to a small private audience about his play A View from the Bridge'. This play, which has been banned by the Lord Chamberlain from public showing in Britain, will be the new club's first production next month. The play was banned because homosexuality is part of the theme. Photo shows Marilyn with husband Arthur Miller at the Comedy Theatre
