Out of her unique association with Steven Berkoff, Linda Marlowe presents Berkoff’s Women, a theatrical exploration of sensuality, revenge, pathos, heart-breaking loneliness and riotous humour.
Having worked with Berkoff for over twenty years, this is a compilation of some of the most rewarding, exciting moments of Berkoff’s female roles, featuring excerpts from his plays “Decadence”, “Greek”, “East”, “Agamemnon”, “Sturm Und Drang”, plus a newly dramatised story “From My Point of View”. The show is very simply performed, no set – just an elegant black dress and a chair. Through a series of monologues Linda Marlowe uses the prose of Steven Berkoff to explore the many emotions of women. Performed as a ‘stand up’ Linda Marlowe physically illustrates the wonderful humour and the sheer sadness of the many personas on show. Steven Berkoff’s language is strong and poetic and his characters outrageous.
Linda Marlowe is a star of stage, television and film. Her West End credits include: Decadence, The Trial, Hamlet and Coriolanus directed by Steven Berkoff.
Film credits include: Big Zapper, Beckett, Hellraiser, The House Of Mirth and Day Of The Dead, while on TV she has appeared in Lovejoy, The Avengers, Midsomer Murders, Spooks and Jekyll, and currently as Sylvie Carter in EastEnders.
From the works of Steven Berkoff - Directed by Josie Lawrence
