Heidi Gledhill, director of BANGING DENMARK
As an actor and first-time director, I wanted my actors to feel supported and safe vocally within the space and with their accents.
Marcus not only supported the actors by giving them an accessible warm up plan that united them as an ensemble and calmed them before each show but also supported me in my new experience.
I am incredibly grateful and felt that my production was in safe hands each time we worked together.
