EMMA CHAIR & MEDIA
CHARLI SECRETARY
EMILY TREASURER
Emma is a national award winning children's entertainer and choreographer. She joined BMOS in 2018, and has since enjoyed playing roles such as 'Mrs Lovett' in 'Sweeney Todd', 'Morticia' in 'The Addams Family' and 'Kate Monster' in 'Avenue Q' as well as directing & choreographing BMOS' 5x NODA Award-Winning 'Disney's Beauty and the Beast'. She has a decade of experience working in theatre professionally and loves to be horizontal with a snack in her hand.
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.
Emily’s performing career peaked at age 8 when she performed in the West End as a workhouse boy in ‘Oliver’. She returned to BMOS for ‘Encores’ after 12 years in retirement, having first joined the society at age 10, playing ‘Brigita’ in ‘The Sound of Music’. Other roles for BMOS include ‘July’ in ‘Annie’ and now ‘Milky White’ in ‘Into The Woods’. She is currently finishing off her studies to be a Therapeutic Coach alongside taking care of a variety of animals, and can often be found munching on a carrot.
KRISTIAN SOCIAL SEC
TOM PRODUCTIONS MGR
ELYSIA ARCHIVIST
ETHAN TECHNICAL MGR
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.
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.
Elysia is a Bournemouth University graduate and currently works for the BBC. She’s been a part of BMOS since 2017, most recently playing ‘Belle’ in ‘Disney’s Beauty and the Beast’, for which she won the NODA Award for Best Actress. Other BMOS shows include ‘West Side Story’, ‘The Addams Family’ and is soon to play ‘Rapunzel’ in our upcoming production of ‘Into The Woods’. When she’s not at rehearsal, Elysia’s a massive Disney fan who loves singing, napping, and eating far too many 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.
DARCY COMMITTEE
CLAIRE MEMBERSHIP
VICKY COMMITTEE
CHRIS COMMITTEE
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!
Chris has been supporting BMOS from the wings since 2017, even being awarded the NODA Unsung Hero Award, which his wife feels has been overly “sung” about. Chris took on a more active role during the society’s production of ‘Disney’s Beauty and the Beast’, where he contributed to set construction and unknowingly became our stage manager. Outside of BMOS Chris is a Design Manager for a Playground Company and a lifelong enthusiast of ‘The Lord of the Rings’.
Vicky joined BMOS in 2024 as a Silly Girl and a plate in Beauty and the Beast and has since been part of the Encores cabaret and then Into the Woods, in a role she didn’t think she’d ever get the chance to play. Outside of BMOS, she writes and edits children’s nonfiction books (occasionally getting to put her degree in Evolutionary Biology to use), reads, bakes, goes searching for wildlife, volunteers with Guide Dogs and learns more crafts than she has time for.
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.
