Marcus presented his first play with songs, Cut Out and Keep… at The Lion and
Unicorn Theatre and BAC in 2001. He made his first EP, Equally Cursed and Blessed and the
accompanying pop video Stranger Than
Fiction in 2004.
After a successful mentorship in 2005 between Marcus and award-winning
performance artist Kazuko Hohki, Marcus began work on Postcards from God - The Sister Wendy
Musical, which has so far been presented at Jermyn Street
Theatre in London's West End and at Hackney Empire Studio Theatre.
The show attracted press coverage from all of London's
broadsheet
newspapers, receiving three-star reviews in Metro, Time Out and The
Sunday Telegraph as well as being featured on BBC London News and Front
Row on BBC Radio Four.
Sister Wendy herself described Marcus as ‘a man of enormous
imagination’ in conversation with Clive Anderson and first lady of
British musical theatre Elaine Paige dubbed him ‘a new Tim Rice’ whilst
discussing his work with Tim Rice himself on BBC Radio Two.
