Meanwhile, I have redesigned the logo for my upcoming production.
I have to give credit to Arthur Miller's play AFTER THE FALL for inspiring this version of my Norma Jeane play. I was flailing around for a year working on drafts until I read his play, with its undisguised representation of Monroe in the character of Maggie and came to this part (Quentin is the stand-in for Miller.)
MAGGIE
Why you wear those pants?(He turns back to her, knowing what is coming.)I told you the seat is too tight.
QUENTIN
Well they made them too tight, but I can walk in them.
MAGGIE
Fags wear pants like that. I told you.(She drinks again. It is so pathological he looks with amazed eyes.)They attract each other with their asses.
QUENTIN
You calling me a fag now?
MAGGIE
(She is very drunk.)Just I've known fags and some of them didn't even know themselves that they were. And I didn't know if you knew about that.
QUENTIN
That's a hell of a way to reassure yourself Maggie.
MAGGIE
(Staggering slightly)I'm allowed to say what I see...
This inspired me to make the play partly about a battle between Norma Jeane and the hospital psychiatrist who is a closeted homosexual. I thought it was fascinating that Miller portrayed Monroe commenting that she's known gay men who did not know they were gay.
