Inside

A theater evening between glamour, loneliness, and great stage magic

With MARILYN & ICH, the kleines theater Bad Godesberg will bring Peter Quilter's comedy to the stage in September 2026 as a German-language premiere. The material revolves around a fragile fantasy, a family in an exceptional state, and the irresistible attraction of Marilyn Monroe – a stage experience that elegantly intertwines humor, melancholy, and theater atmosphere. The performance is scheduled for September 2, 2026, and lasts approximately two hours according to the schedule.

A material with cult potential

Peter Quilter is among those contemporary authors who do not merely quote popular figures but transform them into touching dramatic situations. In Marilyn & Me or Once in a Blue Moon, he combines a family story with an imaginary Marilyn Monroe: A father lives with his idea of Marilyn after the death of his wife, while his adult children struggle with this bizarre, comedic, and simultaneously painfully lonely reality. The author describes the piece itself as a funny and touching comedy about the opposite of loneliness. ([peterquilter.net](https://www.peterquilter.net/once-in-a-blue-moon?utm_source=openai))

Between comedy and quiet heartbeat

The strength of this material lies in the balance of pointed comedy and emotional truth. Quilter combines bright boulevard elements with a clear psychological height: What appears at first glance as a winking star play opens up into a story about loss, projection, and the longing for closeness. It is precisely this dramatic tension that typically binds viewers in the theater immediately. ([peterquilter.net](https://www.peterquilter.net/once-in-a-blue-moon?utm_source=openai))

An evening for an audience with a sense of fine nuances

Those looking for theater with wit, heart, and a touch of Hollywood gold will find a production that promises far more than mere nostalgia. The German-language premiere invites you to see a well-known icon anew – as a mirror for longing, sorrow, and the astonishing power of imagination. Live at the kleines theater Bad Godesberg, this creates an evening that begins cheerfully and ends with a quiet aftereffect.
