Monica Danae Ricketts has played Marilyn Monroe professionally since 2014 and has portrayed the Hollywood Starlet at Universal Studios Hollywood, Universal Studios Japan and all around the country in musicals, films and special events. Honoring Marilyn's image is of utmost importance to her, so she has spent years researching her history and has extensive knowledge about her life. Not only is she an actor, but she also is a trained vocalist and loves to incorporate singing into her events. She recently moved to New York City from Los Angeles, California and is excited to bring Marilyn's legacy to the east coast.

September 10, 2026A week before show i was informed. Ryahn, would be a substitue Marliynn. There was no concerns because every communication prior to the event was professional, timely and clear. On the day of the event Ryahn was on time, in character, beautiful and on point with appearence. All the information about the guest of honor shared prior to the day was remrmbered and incorporated into the presentation. The performance was appropriate for adults and children. The entertainment value was high... Excellent voice, good equipment, well scripted and funny. Everyone enjoyed. The hilight of the day... Thank You Ryahn.

June 12, 2026Modern Marilyn was really, really great at my friends birthday party.
Her acting and singing are Broadway caliber.
Her pre-gig communication is clear, professional and friendly.
Her wardrobe and make up is the best.
She even brings her own sound!
My friend and his guests are still raving about his party days later.
Thank you Modern Marilyn!
