Marcus has appeared on screen for Disney, Seven Bucks, and NBC, and on stage for Opera Queensland, Queensland Music Festival, the Hive Collective, Fringe Brisbane, Metro Arts, Playlab, Room to Play, Coco, Audentis, and Empire Theatres.
"The moment was strongly supported by Marcus Oborn, who played the short-tempered bartender, Murk. Marcus assisted the tragic transformation into something unpredictably comical – a quirk that happened more than once in the show."
Scenstr review of Savage in Limbo (2019)
"Oborn’s firm and reserved embodiment of the private and unyielding Murk spans the characters’ role and rules as an exacting bartender with his aloof attitude when interacting with the larger than life characters that surround him as he serves up drinks."
