A Montage of Monet @ Edinburgh Fringe
Advertisement
Monetβs paintings are world-famous. We all know his water lilies, but how much do we know of the man?
Using innovative projections throughout, this new play explores his life and loves β his two marriages, the devastating death of his first wife followed by the erratic behaviour of his lover, and the desperation prompting his suicide attempt. We become privy to his thoughts on fellow impressionists and how he coped with his failing eyesight, which tormented him. It could have stopped him painting... but did it? But who was Blanche?
Performed by award-winning storyteller Stephen Smith.
Venue: Greenside @ Riddles Court, Clover Studio
Start time: 14:55 (55 minutes)
Suitable for 12+
