President - Joe Davies (he/him) (president@)I'm in my second year studying for a DPhil in Mathematics at St Hugh's. I've been involved in technical theatre since I was in school, and I've worked on productions in both technical and design roles ever since, both in Oxford and as a member of DU Players as an undergraduate. A formative memory as a lighting technician was of trying to figure out how to operate a Mac 2k profile that had been hired for a school production — I caught the bug, and I've been reading manuals and making lights turn on ever since. It’s a privilege to lead a committee of such enthusiastic and talented people. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions, comments, or suggestions, or just to say hi!

Treasurer - Mario Marcos Losada (he/him) (treasurer@)Hey I’m Mario, a DPhil maths student from Brasenose. I love comedies and musicals and I’ve been involved in quite a few during my time in oxford. I’m really excited to join the committee and work with all of these amazing people :))

Secretary - Cayden Ong (he/him) (secretary@)Heya! Cayden here, a second year English student at St Hugh's. I must confess to spending more time in theatres than lecture theatres, learning from all the brilliant and lovely techies in this community. This is my second year on committee, and I want to keep going on a lot of the good work we've started while involving new techies and voices so we can keep the scene going and growing. Please reach out anytime -- for tech help, with ideas that committee can work on, or just for a chat!
