Mark trained at the Royal School of Music and Guildhall School of Music & Drama before going on to study musical theatre at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.
He was a co-founder of Sharpsell Productions London, together with Pat Sharp, producing jingles and themes for radio and television. Whilst initially focussed on production and composition, this work ignited his passion for musical theatre and vocal coaching, which later became his sole focus.
Mark’s career in theatre now spans over twenty years working as Musical Director for theatre schools, choirs and tribute acts, from individually-focussed tuition to full-scale productions with large arrangements and harmonies. Past productions include Our House, Fiddler On The Roof, Sweeney Todd, and Jersey Boys. He is also vocal coach and musical director for the Cheshunt School of Dance.
For Tomorrow’s Talent he taught vocals for the school’s BBC Glee Club entry and has been the Musical Director for the Essex Premiere of Miss Saigon (2013), Les Misérables (2015), Fame (2017) and numerous revue showcases over the years.
In his spare time, Mark runs his own amateur theatre group, Limelight Theatre Company for adults, producing yearly variety shows with a team of talented performers.
