BIO
Marc received his BFA in theater and music from Western Illinois University in Macomb, Illinois. He worked professionally in Chicago as an actor, writer, and composer. He toured nationally with Child’s Play Touring Theater, was a founding ensemble member of the renowned Free Associates Improvisation Company, and worked in Chicago and regional musical theater doing A Chorus Line, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat, 42nd Street, and Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, to name a few. After moving to Los Angeles, Marc turned his focus to music. He founded and created two popular club bands that were regulars on the Hollywood music circuit: Marc Francoeur & the Motha Fizzies and The Butterflyman Band.
Marc Francoeur’s Skanky Me from Kankakee, an original rock musical about one boy’s passage to self-love and acceptance, set against the backdrop of the Sexual Revolution and the picturesque rural cornfields of the Midwest, premiered at the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2015 to rave audience reviews. Marc is thrilled to be a part of the Odyssey Theatre’s Jacque Brel cast.

BWW Review: JACQUES BREL IS ALIVE AND WELL AND LIVING IN PARIS Is Revived & Well At The Odyssey
JACQUES BREL IS ALIVE AND WELL AND LIVING IN PARIS receives a first-rate mounting with a cast of powerful singer/actors, backed by a nimble four-piece musical ensemble, and directed and staged with ingenuity of movement that complement the Jacques Brel tales being performed. These Jacques Brel songs serve as little nuggets, little gems of short stories. Dan Fishbach ably directs this revival of Eric Blau and Mort Shuman, stringing these 24 gems so nicely together.
