I'm Amy, I'm the Co-President (Projects Executive) on the committee and I'm an undergrad finalist in Education, English and Drama. A big fan of all things ‘creative’ (who’d have thought?), you’ll usually find me weeping to musical theatre, binging the latest reality TV masterpiece, or consuming all things comedy (and writing/performing it myself).

I’m George, I study history at Emmanuel College. My favourite hobby is crying shamelessly at films.

I'm Ali, this year's Competitions Officer, and I'm currently in my first year of a part-time Masters in Writing for Performance. As a scriptwriter myself - I particularly love to write linguistically stylised and historical scripts - I'm excited to be involved with the judging and organisation of script-writing competitions.
