CHARLI SECRETARY
EMMA CHAIR
RICHARD TREASURER
Emma is a national award winning children's entertainer and choreographer originally from Kent. She joined BMOS in 2018, and has since enjoyed playing roles such as 'Mrs Lovett' in 'Sweeney Todd', 'Morticia' in 'The Addams Family' and most recently 'Kate Monster' in 'Avenue Q'. She has a decade of experience working in theatre professionally. Emma can never be seen without a snack in her hand and once appeared on The Royal Variety Show as a cardboard cutout.
Charli is a local history secondary school teacher and self-proclaimed Taylor Swift expert. Part of BMOS for two years now, her most notable roles include 'Lucy the Slut' in 'Avenue Q' and 'Enid Hoopes' in 'Legally Blonde'. Yes, she is the woman responsible for the famous 'Whipped into Shape' tumble during the Saturday evening show - and still has the scar to prove it! Her main interests are trips to Beaconsfield Services, History and a colour coded spreadsheet.
Welshman Richard has always had music in his veins but BMOS is his first venture into Amateur Theatre. Now retired from his job as National Sales Manager for a popular travel company, Richard’s mission is to find the best use of his time now that he has lots of it to spare. He loves to visit local care homes to perform for their residents and is very excited to be working alongside outreach manager Claire to bring BMOS to the local community.

TOM COMMITTEE
DARCY OUTREACH
Kristian graduated from Rose Bruford with a BA in Theatre Studies, and now works in Studio Services at Pinewood Studios. His roles with BMOS include 'Emmett' in 'Legally Blonde' and 'Princeton' in 'Avenue Q'. Kristian has a plethora of experience working within the Entertainment industry, including having performed in, created, and directed shows for LEGOLAND Windsor. He also worked as Assistant Director for 'Luck of the Draw' in the West End, and is a keen pianist and accordion player.
When Graham is not designing/building sets or enjoying a glass of wine with his wife or two mad cats (the cats tend to stick with water!) Graham runs 'Kandya', offering a myriad of services to companies of any size; charities, not-for-profits and the public sector. Web design, web hosting, structures, lights and sound... Graham does it all! Graham has been involved with the local theatre circuit longer than he would like to admit and is the president of The Young Theatre.
Darcy joined BMOS in 2022, and spends her days working for local charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Her roles with BMOS have included a Delta Nu in ‘Legally Blonde’ and most recently a Napkin in ‘Disney's Beauty and the Beast’. When not at BMOS, Darcy can be found training dogs, walking dogs, or taking too many photos of dogs, and her dog Noah played Bruiser Woods in our 2022 production of 'Legally Blonde'. She has a Masters Degree in Animal Behaviour and Welfare.
Tom has been involved with BMOS since 2017 and can't quite remember a time without it! Given the group introduced him to his wife, which in turn lead to his beautiful daughter, he feels a debt is still owed and so continues to serve on the committee. He has directed four productions for the group: 'Summer of Love', 'The Addams Family', 'Legally Blonde' and 'Avenue Q' (also appearing as 'Rod' in the latter) as well as performing in two full shows and three cabarets.

LUCY COMMITTEE
ETHAN COMMITTEE
Lucy is a new member of BMOS having joined in 2023 for Puppet Season, playing Ronnette in 'Little Shop of Horrors'. Lucy’s favourite performance experience outside of BMOS includes: 'Alice Beinike' in ‘The Addams Family’, ‘Woman 2’ in ‘Songs for a New World’, ‘Rona’ in ‘The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee’, ‘Joyce’ in ‘Betty Blue Eyes’, and ‘Pam/Ensemble’ in ‘Rent’. Lucy also can be found on a few recordings for short films and musical show demos.
Claire graduated from the London College of Music with a Musical Theatre degree and made her professional debut in her third year in 'Luck of the Draw' in the West End. Claire has enjoyed teaching private singing lessons and drama classes ever since, while also teaching for local performing arts schools. She recently played 'Vivienne' in 'Legally Blonde' and 'Audrey II' in 'Little Shop of Horrors' but can usually be found watching Netflix with a packet of cheese and onion crisps in hand!
Elysia is a Bournemouth University graduate in TV Production and currently works for the BBC. Elysia has been part of BMOS since 2017, with her most notable and recent role being ‘Belle’ in ‘Beauty and the Beast’, as well as performing in various other BMOS cabarets and full productions, including ‘West Side Story’ and ‘The Addams Family’. When she’s not rehearsing, Elysia is a devoted Disney fan who enjoys singing, napping and eating copious amounts of chicken nuggets.
Ethan is BMOS' youngest committee member, at just 16 years old! He has been a member for almost 6 years, starting as Pugsley in The Addams Family. He has since transitioned over to the technical side and is now BMOS' resident lighting designer... and boy does he love lighting! Since joining BMOS, Ethan has become a core part of the local theatre community working with numerous other companies and is far wiser than many of us. We often joke he's actually 40 years old with a mortgage.
