Quentin Mare, a renowned Broadway actor, has died at the age of 49. Quentin was born in Chicago but later called New York City his home since the 1990s.
Quentin’s death was confirmed by Time Out theater critic Adam Feldman, “Very sad to learn of the death earlier today of the much-loved Quentin Maré, one of those local actors we take for granted will be around and doing quietly great work forever.”
While Scottish acting legend Brian Cox told Broadway World upon learning of Mare’s passing, “is passing is not only a personal tragedy for his friends and loved ones but also a reminder of the impossible conditions actors in New York have to endure, trying to sustain a career in the theater and keep body and soul together.”
Quentin Mare cause of death
Broadway World reported that Mare’s cause of death was being given as natural causes. Mare was found dead on April 21. The article saw his close friend, “Goonies” star Martha Plimpton, also pay tribute saying that Mare was “a poet’s actor-smart, acerbic, prone to darker modes, yet open and warm and loyal… I don’t think any of us who knew and loved him had any idea how many hundreds of other people loved him. He just never let on.”
