‘Game of Thrones’ star coming to Fife

‘Game of Thrones’ star Maisie Williams is coming to St Andrews.

The actor, famous for her role as Arya Stark of Winterfell in the international smash hit fantasy drama series, will visit to take part in the university’s Careers Week.

She will be promoting her new social networking app for young artists.

Described as “a playground for creative collaboration” the app, called ‘Daisie’, sets out to revolutionise the way young people use social media by providing a platform that not only focuses on their growth as individuals but gives users a safe space to pursue their desired careers and facilitates their need for work-focussed connections.

Maisie will be appearing at the Younger Hall from 5.30 to 7pm on Tuesday 5th February at the event hosted by the University of St Andrews Students’ Association.

Maisie said, “Before ‘Daisie’, success in the creative industries has been wholly dependent on luck and ‘ins’ to the industry. ‘Daisie’ introduces a new way into the creative world, through connections made organically and the natural development of your skills, propelling individuals to the next level.”

Jamie Minns, Director of Student Development and Activities at St Andrews, said, “We are delighted to be welcoming Maisie to St Andrews.

“There is a thriving community of student performing arts societies at St Andrews. Maisie is an international star and can help to inspire our students who are interested in a career in the performing arts.”

Tickets are free but pre-registration is required. Tickets can be booked online at https://www.yourunion.net/ents/event/1426/.
