About Marilyn
My singing career started at the age of 13 when I sang at local folk clubs
accompanying myself with rythmn guitar. By the age of 14 I was part of a
trio called Marcel which led me to join another group called Lemon Tree
where we focused on three or four part harmonies. I remained with Lemon Tree
for many years we were quite successful. One year we entered 'The Pub
Entertainer of the Year' and reached the finals which were held at The Royal
Albert Hall, and to our delight achieved third place.
During my years with Lemon Tree I also lived abroad for a while, but when
I returned even though I continued singing with them I had a desire to perform
my songs. This desire was answered by joining a local Theatre Group, it gave
me the opportunity as I performed lead roles such as Sally Bowles in Cabaret,
and Fanny Brice in Funny Girl. The Director suggested I should go to Drama
School after I won the award of Best Female Performance in 1997 for the role of Fanny by the Greater Manchester Drama Federation. I did so and studied at Laine Johnson Theatre School for nearly four
years. During that time I also attended, on three separate occasions, intense
week courses at RADA.
I found an agent and managed to steadily build up a decent CV.
Currently I am being represented by Spotlight.
