Kamryn Marck

Kamryn Marck has appeared at Open Book Theatre in "Artemisia" (young Artemisia and Prudenzia Figlia), "Bernhardt/Hamlet"(Lysette and Rosamond) and"Georgiana and Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley" (Georgiana). Kamryn is a performer, writer, and ecological gardener based in Royal Oak, Michigan. She studied Musical Theatre at Oakland University and has worked as an actress and teaching artist with theater companies around the midwest. While living in Auburn, NY, she co-founded Cayuga Climate Action. She also cultivated her passions for holistic health and permaculture by working at Silver Tree Forest Farm. Back in Michigan, she furthered her practice installing ambitious regenerative spaces with Garden Juju Collective, all the while tinkering on her backyard garden.Kamryn has fallen in love with local women's history. Her one-woman-plays "Women of the Watch: Keepers of the Light" and "Movers, Shakers, and Music Makers" are still touring Michigan and have over 100 combined performances. Her most recent play "Three Needles and Suture" had a successful run at The Lorenzo Cultural Center and a subsequent tour. She’s passionate about using storytelling and music to facilitate the collective imagining of a world where we heal the land, undo our broken systems, and rebuild ecosystems that work for every living thing. She believes wholeheartedly in grassroots movements that create more fairness for everyone, especially those who have been historically oppressed and excluded. She actively pursues thoughtfulness, hope, and joy in herself and her projects.Kamryn is beyond proud to lead Good Tidings Carolers, a group of professional holiday carolers in metro-Detroit. kamrynmarck.com
