Chief Executive Officer at Naparima Bowl, Award-winning actor and singer, Marlon De Bique, has died.
His family confirmed he died on Tuesday night at the San Fernando General Hospital after a brief illness. He was 45 years old.
In a statement to the media, De Bique’s family highlighted that his journey in the arts started with the musical 'Blossom Time' in 1995 with the Presentation College Mixed Choir. He was also involved in several productions by The Marionettes Chorale, The UWI Arts Chorale, 3Canal, and The Trinity Tenors.
His family notes in 2008, Living Arts Inc. of New York acknowledged his talent as a singer and actor and he was cast in the roles of Sportin’ Life and Robbins in the Gershwin opera 'Porgy and Bess.'
De Bique's family says he won several titles at the Bi-Annual Music Festival and captured two Cacique Awards for his roles as Judas in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 'Jesus Christ Superstar' and Gaston in 'Beauty and the Beast.'
In April, De Bique made his play-directing debut with Wole Soyinka’s 'The Lion and the Jewel' produced by The UWI Department for Creative and Festival Arts at Queen’s Hall.
