Old Girl Continues her Communications Journey

On Wednesday 18 May 2022 I was interviewed by Emma Suster, MLC School Old Girl of 2020 for her current university assignment.

Emma studied HSC Drama and produced an outstanding lighting design for her Individual Project. Pursuing her interests in Theatre and Film, Emma is currently studying for a Bachelor of Communications at UTS, specialising in media arts and production.

Her current assignment is to produce a feature news article in an area of interest and Emma has chosen drama therapy and the therapeutic benefits of theatrical experience. Emma said, “through this degree I hope to pursue a career in film and my drama studies at school have provided a great foundation for a possible career in this area”.

As part of her course, Emma films segments of texts to understand all aspects of film production. In our interview, Emma posed questions about the value of theatre and its possibilities for transformative experiences for both participants and audience. It was great to see one of our Old Girls and hear how see is using her MLC School experiences to move forward in her chosen field.
