  • Resumen

  • Dame Edith Sitwell is on the final leg of a sell-out Recital Tour of America. Eccentric, old, aristocratic and extremely English, she has taken the States by storm. Nevertheless she is annoyed that her sponsors, Life Magazine, are holding her to her contract getting her to write an article interviewing a relatively unknown film actress, about to hit the big time.

    Marilyn Monroe.

    Life Magazine and Dame Edith know perfectly well that the two are unlikely to hit it off. But somehow these two opposites attract, surprise each other and forge a deep bond. Despite their totally different backgrounds, they lose their minders and find much more in common than either would have guessed. By the end of their allotted hour, they have discovered truths about motherhood and childhood, beauty and ugliness, the price of fame and the masks we hide behind‚ as well as the human truth that we have more in common than things that divide us.

    The Dame and the Showgirl have become friends.

The Dame and the Showgirl

Simon, I am so proud of you. This play is perfectly cast, beautifully written and makes the point, that we have much more in common than what divides us. How pertinent during these turbulent times.

I loved the inclusion of Alessandro, from the boutique hotel, a few steps from Berry Brothers and Rudd. After all, we drank more than a few perfectly made martinis there.

The acting is superb. Emma Thompson, came incognito, for a tour of Villa Aurora. She could see that I recognized her, upon which she stated, “I just have one of those English faces, that people think they recognize.” I smiled.

Who could have imagined the valedictorian of our Harvard Business School class would finally proceed in the direction of his dreams!
