Broken Nails: A Marlene Dietrich Dialogue November 18, 2010

Beautiful, determined, intelligent and controversial, Marlene Dietrich was a transcendent symbol of femininity and a woman of very strong character. Fascinating to both men and women, her personality has seduced Anna Skubik, a Polish actress and puppeteer, who animates this German icon in the form of a life-size puppet in 'Broken Nails: A Marlene Dietrich Dialogue'. The play portrays Marlene and her maid Gloria, both played by Skubik, in a co-dependent relationship during the star's last days in her Paris apartment.
