Marianne Coleman-Hipkins
 
 Welcome!                                       
Marianne's voice and her delivery is very gentle, trustworthy sounding and yet authoritative. It is suitable for projects requiring a warm, credible read, and in the age ranges from young children and upwards.... Her warm and soothing voice lends itself very well to soft sell commercials.

Marianne's voice has been variously described as memorable, gentle, smooth, sexy, sultry, soft-spoken, ethnic, credible, young, thoughtful, charming, refreshing, authoritative, pleasant, easy to listen to,  and fun.

Why don't you decide for yourself?

She also has a range of different, versatile voice styles and accents, from her native New Zealand  accent,  to British,  Irish, German, French,  Italian accents, and she has even been known to attempt the odd Australian accent from time to time.

Marianne comes with over 30 years experience in musicals, stage, TV, movies, and more recently, in voice over work. She has a particular passion for all medically related projects, having spent 30 years as a nurse - until a work related injury forced her early retirement and allowed her to focus on her primary love.... voice work!
