'Marc is a highly valued colleague. We work often closely together, I focus on voice, Marc on acting and interpretation
Marc's energy is unsurpassed. He knows better than anyone how to bring someone's craft to a higher level and he has an answer all your questions.'

Milan van Waardenberg / Musical performer

'I got to know Marc during my studies at the Fontys School of the Arts in Tilburg. His interpretation and acting classes have left an indelible impression on me. The precision and clarity with which Marc works, make him one of the best coaches I've worked with to date. Marc lives for his profession, which means that you always want to be your best self while working with him. I have graduated for five years now, but I do not hesitate to call if I need help. "Marc, this scene, what the hell am I playing here?!!" Not much later I get an extensive voice memo back with numerous options. We facetime time and again to spar and a few days later I am fully prepared for rehearsal.

'Audition and interpretation workshops by Marc Krone are a real asset for professional musical performers! In working with you he focuses on your weak points and strengthens your professional abilities.
I can recommend his masterclasses to everybody. The workshops are suitable for everyone, both newcomers and seasoned performers, who welcome new input and a different perspective!'

'I am very happy that I got lessons from Marc. He is a real craftsman and shares his knowledge with a passion that it is contagious! His way of working has inspired me to this day. I often think back to what I have learned from him and apply it every day in my work as a musical artist.' ____________________________________________________________________

'Marc has the skill to teach you how tell a story in a way that is authentic to you as an artist. I’ve had the joy of working with him whilst training at drama school and I still use the tools I’ve learned in his classes.'

Andreas Schrager / Tenor

Working with you is challenging and inspiring. You have a very youthful and fresh approach to the piece, but with great respect for play and music. Above all I like your good humor: you work relentlessly and at the same time you are able to create a wonderful atmosphere. That is really wonderful! You are a director with whom I'd very much like to work again!

Bert Simhoffer (Actor and Singer)

Marc Krone is a man who knows exactly what is possible on stage. Not only for his actors but also for the whole set (decor) and the lighting. He also gives the public a realistic plot and inspires his actors to play real and complete people. That, combined with his perfect sense of humor, and more than the one big story line (he gives each character their one little story to tell to the public) makes him an all round theatre maker.
During the process he stays friendly, firm, always on top off things, keeping the whole picture in his head and gives a lot of energy to his actors, chorus, ballet and everyone who is working on and behind the stage. He works on time with no time pressure, is easygoing but direct and always with the end result in his mind.
His enthusiasm makes the performers give more of themselves from the very first moment they are working with Marc. He is also a good 'trooper'. He is a binding element in a group of performers, which is very important for the whole rehearsal process.
It is really nice to work with him and what is even more important, the public and the press highly appreciate his work.

Karel Spanhak (Set designer)

My first encounter with Marc Krone took place in the first class waiting room of the Central Station in Amsterdam. For this occasion the restaurant was briefly turned into our work-office. The situation which evolved would certainly have been a good example of a wonderful comedy evening in the theatre.
Then and there Marc played out all the parts of the opera he wanted me to do the set desingn for including the female parts, to great astonishment of the other guests in the restaurant.
It was a grotesque situation, but as soon would appear, very effective. I immediately sensed that Marc Krone wanted to brave new paths and unknown territory with this production.
Moreover this experience was a very pleasant way to start the designing of the set.
Right from the start of rehearsals Marc proved himself to be an able and innovative theatre director, and had planned and thought out things thoroughly.
In the shortest of time, he created a fantastic work environment which led to a great working atmosphere among members of the ensemble.
It was wonderful to see all the ideas that were developed in Amsterdam bloom in such an fruitful environment.
With his sophisticated direction Krone brought life and content to the set and its design.
The entire space was utilized on different levels, and over all filled with action. All we had discussed in Amsterdam was implemented.
He created wonderful comic scenes and colorful pictures.
Thus a musical comedy was born that will have its place in our musical-saturated theatre landscape.
A small masterpiece, a new way, bringing fun to both old and young. ____________________________________________________________________

Rita Lucia Schneider (Mezzo soprano)

In his capacity of director, Mr. Krone has done an excellent job. I would moreover like to highlight the following points: through his skill and his meticulous preparation and knowledge of the piece he delivered very focused and solution oriented work. On stage as well as backstage. He was also very friendly and diplomatic in dealing with people. Not only with the soloists, but also with the choir and all those involved behind the scenes. This contributed much to a very good working atmosphere.
It is due to Mr. Krone's energy, expertise and experience that the production of The Gypsy Baron was a huge success, and that he got good reviews for himself and the production as a whole. All involved have particular good memories of working with him.

Terence van der Loo / Musical Perfomer

For me, Marc's strength lies in the speed with which he proceeds. Marc sees an interpretation for a song or scene and knows immeadetly exactly how to hit the pain points and immediately give you several new handles on them, steering you in the right direction. After which you have the feeling that you have figured out all by yourself
