==Biography==
==Biography==
Wren is someone with an everlasting passion for choral singing and no formal music education. Has been involved in every LOpSoc production between 2014 and 2017. Webmaster for the society in 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18, was also the person who started the LOpSoc tradition of vocal workshops, leading them between 2015 and 2017.
Joined the mysterious cult-LOpSoc in January 2014 and has been part of the chorus in all shows since. Webmaster of the society in 2015/16 and 2016/17. Had a great time as a producer of [[H.M.S. Pinafore 2015]] (major achievement: getting golden sequin PINA4 tops on stage), and is loving to work as one of the musical directors in [[Gondoliers 2016]]. Some say Renata is a secret fairy and immortal, or perhaps a mere collective illusion arising from a combination of Ribena overdose and silent moments during tech runs... Who knows... Will try to sing anything from high soprano to low tenor. And fail when attempting the bass line. Note: has a long plait. Why? We may never find out...


Additional roles in the society include: producer in [[H.M.S. Pinafore 2015]]; musical director in [[Gondoliers 2016]] and [[Gondoliers 2016 (Harrogate)]]; head producer & choreographer in [[Mikado 2017]] and award-winning [[Mikado 2017 (Harrogate)]]; technical crew for [[Half a Sixpence 2017]], remote graphic artist in [[Princess Ida 2019]], and remote director in [[Double Feature 2021]]. Has also received the society's Professor Lilley award (2016) and Life Membership award (2017) for contributions to the society.
=== Skills ===
-Balancing a bottle upon the head


After graduating from the society, could often be found lurking in the the back of the Annex with the LOpSoc camera on Saturday performances. However, 2020/21 held something else in store. With the society moving online for the year, Wren returned to the society emotely, arranging and rehearsing a "chorus react" medley of songs from G&S operettas (you can [https://soundcloud.com/lopsoc/gilbert-and-sullivan-medley-2020 listen to it here]). Also directed and edited the remote [[Double Feature 2021]], which resulted in audio-drama recordings of [[Cox and Box]] and [[The Carp]]. You can listen to those at https://m.soundcloud.com/lopsoc .
-Tap dancing down stairs and jumping from the raise


A fitting encore and farewell to the society. LOpSoc was a welcoming family in a strange place, and Wren will forever treasure the memories and friends made here.
-Casting a magical spell over the Gondoliers cast and making them chant in canon and dance, scaring many students who wander the halls outside
 
-OLD PEOPLE MAKEUP
 
-Data Wizard, because science is magic!
 
 
=== Fresher Legends ===
 
-Has a very wide voice range, it confuses us as to how
 
-Can coax an amazing voice out of the quietest person in her vocal workshops
 
-She wears one single plait, origin unknown


=== Useless trivia ===
Holds the society record of "largest time spent preparing a pointless joke for a production", having spent two months painting a massive portrait of the Baratarian Kings for [[Gondoliers 2016]] that was visible on stage for just a few seconds. Another notable society record is the "largest amount of time spent crafting set decoration", with the months-long origami folding for the productions of [[Mikado 2017]] and its Harrogate counterpart.
