Amy Hickson
Practice Manager
Amy joined Theatreplan in 2018 as Practice Assistant and later became Practice Co-ordinator, having previously worked in Higher Education Institutions, providing administrative support to academic staff, and services support in the Estates Division of the London School of Economics. Whilst working at LSE, Amy assisted the Manager of the Peacock Theatre, with the running of events and lectures. This gave her an insight into the different aspects of working in a theatre and managing all the elements which come together to make the venue operationally effective and welcoming.
Amy originally studied Geography at the University of Exeter, where she focused on Cultural Human Geographies. In her final year she volunteered at the Centre for Contemporary Art and the Natural World (CCANW) -
an art gallery which was based in Haldon Forest where she assisted with preparations for an exhibition, and wrote her dissertation entitled:
Beach Huts; A Sense of Dwelling by the Seashore. She appreciates the opportunities that come with working in the city, regularly attending theatre performances and art exhibitions.
In 2024 Amy became Practice Manager, managing the practice’s operational work from general administration, to bid development, marketing and PR, and HR, and providing assistance to the Director of Operations with overall company management.
