Dr. Sophie Mayer & School of English and Drama, Queen Mary University London

Sophie is the current Poet in Residence at the Archive of the Now, exploring the sounds and senses of contemporary poetry. She's the author of two poetry collections and two chapbooks, and co-editor of Catechism: Poems for Pussy Riot, which combined poetry, punk, protest and social media. 

The School of English and Drama offers single and joint honours degrees in English and Drama, as well as programme combinations with Film, Modern Languages, and Linguistics. Rated first in London for Student Satisfaction (Guardian, 2014) and second in the UK for research, this is where medieval poetry meets immersive 21st century performance!
