Laura first joined Cygnets back in 2012 when she played Miss Prism in The Importance of Being Earnest. After a seven year gap (!), she then returned to the society to perform the multiple roles of Adult Woman in the wonderful 2019 production of Spring Awakening (to this day one of the highlights of her life!). She’s since pushed herself further out of her comfort zone tackling the challenge of one of the online Talking Heads monologues in An Ordinary Woman.
During the day, Laura is an Events Director, specialising in organising conferences, exhibitions, virtual events, and everything in between!. So the opportunity to spend part of her free time organising socials and events for Cygnets really plays into her skillset. Laura has been on committee for two years now, although ironically only managed two in-person events during that time before the pandemic locked us all in our homes… So she turned my hand to virtual events! As well as being a great challenge to take on, pulling together online socials, such as the virtual Escape Room and The Masked Cygnet, has been incredibly rewarding, and Laura has enjoyed her role in putting on enjoyable experiences for our members.
