Story, taught from inside it.
Marlowe is a sought-after story consultant and keynote speaker. She served as story editor on two long-running television dramas, and now teaches what twelve years of acting taught her: how stories move people, and how people move stories.
Festivals, drama schools, studios and companies — talks are practical, funny and honest, built around scenes, not slides.

How a talk takes shape
Step one — your room
Your audience, your occasion, the change you want in the room afterwards.
Step two — the performance
Scenes, stories and one big idea — rehearsed like a performance, because it is one.
Step three — the day
Forty-five minutes or a full day, with time for the questions that matter.
“Our students still quote her verbatim. She taught a term’s worth of craft in a single afternoon.”
Booking questions
What is your speaking fee?
Fees depend on format, travel and preparation — festivals and schools have their own rates. Write with your date and I will reply plainly.
Do you travel for keynotes?
Yes, worldwide, with one travel day protected on either side of the event.
Can talks be tailored to our theme?
Always. Every keynote is rebuilt around your audience — no two have ever been the same.
