Marielle Tepe

Resident Director

Marielle is a Millikin University Theatre graduate of 2018.  She began her journey with Shakespeare Corrected as a student, serving as a scene coach and as the Fight Choreographer for the Decatur Correctional Center production of As You Like It.  Before graduating, she and three of her peers co-directed the Macon Resources Inc. production of A Midsummer Night's Dream.  She started a new chapter in 2019 as the Director of Two Gentlemen of Verona at DCC.  This project solidified her love of theatrical creation and made her realize the human impact that Shakespeare Corrected has upon the community. Prior to the premature closure of rehearsals in March of 2020, Marielle had begun her second year directing the DCC ladies in their production of Twelfth Night.  Shakespeare Corrected has been one of the most artistically fulfilling experiences for Marielle and she looks forward to collaborating with the participants again soon!
