Artsoc: President

Hi everyone! I'm Justin in Year 3 Chemistry and the President of Artsoc this year!

To begin with, thank you for the unprecedented support in these past two years! I am glad to have made theatre more affordable and accessible to everyone. I am proud of what my committee and I were able to achieve during my tenure for the past two years.

We have greatly increased our number of shows to a record 13 this term! Besides the usual popular shows, we have also diversified our lineup with a variety of unique and sold-out shows (such as Paddington and Inter Alia) after listening to your recommendations and polling members!

As for our ticket supply, we have tripled the number of tickets available (to over 1000 with summer term still to go!) compared to previous years, and with the novel advance sales system implemented this year, we have ensured as many people as possible have access to their favourite musicals and plays!

Looking forward, I'd like to make shows even more affordable by negotiating with the union for grant funding. I would also like to secure more tickets for popular shows (especially with the well-received advance sales system) to ensure everyone who wants a ticket can secure one!

It has been an absolute blast serving Artsoc, and I'm excited to continue my work for Artsoc next year! Thank you!
