Liz Koravos, MD at Arches, says: "To produce the audio guide for Marilyn: The Exhibition, we had a tight turnaround and decision making needed to be considered but decisive and definitely fast. We were thrilled with the end product which was accurate, engaging and told the story of Marilyn Monroe’s life, death and legacy in a new and interesting way.

"We are the first standalone Marilyn exhibition of this kind in the UK and for the most famous female face of the 20th century, we needed to do her justice and give our visitors a glimpse of the woman behind the icon. Imagineear delivered and were a pleasure to work with."

Marilyn: The Exhibition is open daily and is accompanied by a programme of special events which are taking place over the coming months.
