Trained in improv, physical comedy and Meisner technique, he has been performing in some form or other since early childhood. His breakout role in “The King and I” (alongside the legendary Hayley Mills) instilled a love of the craft and a passion for theatre. He continued on stage in multiple South Australian productions throughout high school and college, and after completing degrees in Arts and Law embarked upon a professional acting career.
Moving to Sydney and then Singapore, Marlon worked in everything from live theatre and Fringe shows to feature films and television, appearing in four Singaporean TV series and several award-winning short films. Throughout this period, he worked tirelessly on his craft, tutored by working actors Sam Haft, Chum Ehelopola and Kamil Haque and learning Meisner, Adler, Chekov, Improv, Suzuki and Meyerhold techniques.
Marlon is also a skilled impressionist.
