President

Jessica Tran (she/her)

Hey! I’m a crimpol (criminology & politics) student who is really passionate about theatre. I have previous experience with FLW and UMMTA and have decided to branch out into something new… like starting a theatre company! I’ll also be part of the UMSU Creative Arts team in 2024. If you don’t see me working, I’m most likely singing in a corner somewhere lol!

Secretary & Marketing Manager

Jessica Fanwong (she/her)

Hiya! I’m an English & theatre studies major but making up for the ‘theatre’ part of my degree outside of my course. I’ve been involved in UMMTA, FLW, Flare & Eleven & unwittingly find myself doing publicity for every show I’m part of. Most likely sighted whereever there’s books or theatre shows.

Treasurer

Belle White (she/her)

IHello!! I’m an economics & creative writing major; the only theatre kid they could find willing to do math. I’ve played TJ in UMMTA’s 2023 Fringe show ‘Charlie’s Cultish Christmas’ and stage managed a Mudfest show. Super excited to be treasurer for Cipta! People are most likely to find me at home watching gay tv shows.

Equity Officer

Nabila Malik (she/her)

Hi, I’m currently doing a degree in Masters of Arts and Cultural Management and am finding my feet in arts management after nearly a decade-long break from the industry. I produced UMMTA’s 2023 mainstage show ‘Spamalot’. I’m really passionate about improving diversity and inclusion in theatre. I’ll likely be at Parkville or Southbank annoying people.

Events & Sponsorship Manager

Marcie Di Bartolomeo (she/they)

Hello hello! I am a current Master of Social Work student and a recent Bachelor of Arts graduate. I have been actively involved in many theatre groups over the years: from Mudcrabs to Fake Newspaper to FLW to UMMTA to Dead End. I was an UMSU Creative Arts Officer, and during my term I produced Tastings, an arty festival all about new works and elevating the voices of emerging student artists. I am super-duper keen to be in a role specialised in events management and sponsorships! You can usually find me where-ever there’s something fun & creative going on.

General Committee

Ella Kerr (she/her)

Howdy! I am studying a Master of Arts and Cultural Management so that I can manage some arts and culture one day. I am an avid theatre goer, and you’ll find me around town volunteering at theatres or for arts festivals, when I am not trying to make people eat the baked goods I brought. I look forward to being part of the Cipta chipmunk gang!
