Meet our DU Players Committee
The DU Players committee is responsible for the overall running of Players! There are 14 committee members elected every year in Hilary Semester who fill various positions, making sure our society runs smoothly throughout the year. Our committee is aided by our wonderful sub-committee members. Anyone can join a sub-committee by filling out the link on our 'Get Involved' page!
Hi all! I'm Jessie and I'm your chair this year, which means I oversee all the crazy antics that happen in this building, and take care of my 13 children <3 (she/her)
Hey guys! So I'm your lovely new secretary Alex, sexretary if you're nasty. My role on committee is loads of really fun stuff like emails and some more emails and I think also emails but get back to me on that. I'm mainly here for admin work and taking minutes but will stick around for the vibes too, and to be Jessie's enforcer. Whatever mama wants, mama gets. (he/him)

A might creature indeed, yet still compassionate and kind...(*Jasper then proceeds to tell a really long story that has no relevance to his role on committee*)...I'm treasurer, by the way. (he/him)

Howya! I'm Tim and I'll be your social media man this year.

Hi! I'm Teddy and I run all the awesome programmes offered here at Players, including PiPS, the re-plays, LEMONS, etc. When I tried explaining my committee role to my family back home, it didn't work and they all think I hand out paper programs to audience members at shows. It's okay though because I love the mystique. (they/them)
I'm Ally, your Festivals & Workshops Co-ordinator! I organize all the lovely festivals that Players puts on (which is mainly me crying over scheduling spreadsheets), and emailing every industry professional under the sun to set up fun workshops for you all! (she/her)
