and said "Yes." We phoned our
respective parents immediately to
share the news. They were thrilled
and we spoke for hours. It was
really quite wonderful."
The wedding was held on a day
off for Stratford actors, Monday,
September 15, 1986. The couple
was married at The Church Rest-
aurant by the father of fellow actor
Geraint Wyn Davies. "It was absol-
utely wonderful," remembers Mar-
ion. "He had this delightful, rolling

included ancient Welsh symbols, an
exchange of roses and wine glasses
and the lighting of candles. About
35-40 people attended, including
members of the company. Festival
actor Co1m Feore was best man and
the bride's younger sister Jennifer,
flew in from Victoria B.C. to be her
bridesmaid.
Still working, the newlyweds only
had one night for a honeymoon so
had decided to spend it at Benmiller
Inn, near Goderich. "When we
arrived there we discovered that
Colm had secretly driven out that
day and paid for the room. There
was champagne waiting for us as
well. It was lovely, but brief. The
next day we were back to work."
Since their marriage Scott and
Marion had been trying desperately
to work together as much as
possible. Just after their marriage
Scott went to New York, while
Marion took a job in Edmonton. "I
saw him at Christmas, but we were
apart for four months, almost as
long as we had courted. When he
came out at Christmas we looked at
each other and realized we each had
so much to learn about the other
one. Since then we have decided to
make a real commitment to our-
selves and to this marriage." This
past summer while Scott worked in
Stratford, Marion was a member of
the Blyth Festival theatre company
just an hour away. They recently
completed a stint together at the
Indiana Repertoire Company. The
last show Marion appeared in was
directed by Scott, which she said,
added another interesting aspect to
the relationship. Due to an unfortu-
nate accident he will also be
directing her in her next project. "A
lot of people in the industry have
begun to think of actors differently
and now promote couples working
together," she said. The couple
has also recently completed a script
for a musical "Gun Metal Blues",
based on Raymond Chandler's film
noire.
Marion says, she and Scott plan
to start a family at some point but as

must be right for her, especially if
you want to have the time to enjoy
your children. "Right now I'm still
very busy working, but we both feel
strongly about having children
some day soon." It is definitely, she
feels, a project for future considera-
tion.
