Kay Lynn Er

Hi, I’m Kay Lynn, a writer, director, and (occasional) stage manager. I’m the first to admit I’ve only gotten this far through continued training (I hope my school drama club counts), but at the same time, most of what I know I figured out through lots of confusion and many mistakes. Though I’ve learnt lots from all the productions I’ve been part of this year, there have absolutely been times I was standing in a rehearsal room completely lost. So, I’d love to continue the work of this year’s committee and increase members’ confidence in themselves, facilitate the exchange of skills, and make the society an even more supportive environment for us all to grow.

A few ideas:

  1. Form to submit workshop ideas: Have a hidden talent? I’d like to give every member an easy way to propose workshops they’d like to run so we get more workshops up on their feet and more people learning from each other.
  2. New Work workshopping: As a writer-director, I know how crucial it is for theatremakers to workshop their work with actors. There have been many times I’ve run something in rehearsal only to realise it doesn’t work or the script must be edited further. It’s a shame if this opportunity is only afforded to those who get through the bid process. Workshops train actors, writers, and directors, and I’d like to establish a regular space for them with the New Writing Officer.

Thanks for considering me and reading that long ramble. I hope to serve as one of your next Workshops and Events Managers!

Mayukh Das

Hello everyone! I'm your friendly chemist, Mayukh! Currently a 2nd year (soon to be 3rd hopefully) Chemistry student, and a dedicated member who has been passionately involved in drama from my high school days, I am excited to put forth my candidacy for the Workshops Officer. Being an Outreach Ambassador of our Faculty, I have a host of experience in organising workshops in crafting engaging and educational events, which has inspired me to apply for this fantastic role!

If elected, my goals include:

Diverse Workshops: I plan to curate a wide range of workshops that cater to all interests within our society—from acting and directing to scriptwriting. These sessions will be designed to not only enhance our theatrical skills but also to provide real-world insights and networking opportunities.

Innovative Events: Whether it's a play-reading marathon, an improv night, or a collaborative project with other societies, my aim is to create memorable and enriching experiences for everyone.

Efficient Planning: I will leverage my organizational expertise to ensure that all events are well-planned, smoothly executed, and accessible to all members.

Feedback-Driven Programming: I intend to implement regular feedback mechanisms to make sure our workshops and events are truly serving your needs and interests, evolving our offerings based on what you tell us works best.

Together, we can make our Drama Society's calendar vibrant, educational, and downright fun.
