ODA

The ODA (Oxford Drama Assets) is a joint committee consisting of members of both the OUDS and OUTTS committees, managing a fund which is intended to invest in useful practical assets for the use of student drama in Oxford. They do this by funding capital projects and equipment purchases while soliciting funding donations from student production companies. The ODA has funded projects such as the O'Reilly Theatre QLab and video system, OUTTS's hazer, and purchase of new equipment for the Pilch studio. 

If you have a project that you think the ODA could help fund, a piece of useful equipment it could buy or would like to consider giving money to the fund, please get in touch with the OUTTS exec.
