SUMMARY:The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos
DESCRIPTION:The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos\n\n\n\nThe classic story of betrayal and revenge retold and continued in a startling new tragedy by Oxford playwright Nick Thomas.  \n\n\n\nAn Asian sorceress exiled in the Greek city of Corinth\, when Medea is callously betrayed by her husband\, Jason\, she uses her powers of magic and prophecy to exact the worst revenge imaginable. First dramatised by Euripides in 431 BC\, this ancient myth pursues the themes of love and loss\, superstition and piety\, and loyalty and hatred to a terrifying conclusion. But Medea’s story isn’t finished yet…  \n\n\n\nNick Thomas first presented his one-hour reworking of Medea at the OFS in 2004\, when the Oxford Times called it “a first class modern tragedy.” This June Nick returns to direct a revival of his Medea\, now paired with its sequel\, Medos. This new play continues the story of Medea into her second exile in Athens and involves her in a different strand of tragic Greek myth that has never been dramatised before.   \n\n\n\nThe ancient Greek myths are some of the most colourful and gripping stories ever told\, driven by timeless human motivations and full of magic\, suspense\, and drama. This new production is a must for students of Greek literature and modern theatre alike\, as Nick Thomas uses English dramatic verse to take the cast and audience on a thrilling ride into the depths of our cultural past.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nStandard – £15.00 \n\n\n\nPay more – £20.00 \n\n\n\nPay less – £10.00 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 25 to Saturday 28 June 2025 \n\n\n\nWednesday to Friday at 7.30pm\, Saturday at 2.30pm and 7.30pm   \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n1 hour 50 minutes \n\n\n\nAge guidance: \n\n\n\n14+  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Old Fire Station\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Fire Station in Oxford is an arts centre with a unique social mission\, combining creativity with community impact.

SUMMARY:Machinal by Sophie Treadwell
DESCRIPTION:Machinal by Sophie Treadwell\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Machinal by Sophie Treadwell\n\n\n\n‘How can that be? A great sin – a mortal sin – for which I must die and go to hell – but it made me free! One moment I was free!’ \n\n\n\nThe city. A woman is restless. Women are suffocating. Women are silenced. A woman revolts. \n\n\n\nMachinal is a pulse-pounding journey of women pushed to breaking point by the relentless machinery of patriarchy\, life\, expectation\, and convention. Sophie Treadwell’s play written in 1928\, updated to 2025\, in Mandala Young Company’s version\, is as relevant today as it was then. It is a gripping exploration of societal norms\, female identity\, and the consequences of rebellion. \n\n\n\nInspired by the real-life case of convicted and executed murderer Ruth Snyder\, the play delves into the life of a young woman caught in the machinery of a rigid and oppressive society. \n\n\n\nThe play is written in eight episodes depicting ‘the different phases of life that a woman comes in contact with\, and in none of which she finds any place\, any peace’. Each episode titles the location of the social institution or the type of behaviour still expected of women in the 21st century. \n\n\n\nThis is not just a play – it’s a warning\, a mirror\, and a rallying cry. Machinal confronts the quiet suffocation of expectation and the loud silence of being unheard. In a world still grappling with gender roles and systemic control\, this story—told through a bold\, modern lens—asks the question: What happens when a woman has no room left to breathe? \n\n\n\nCome for the powerful storytelling. Stay for the uncomfortable truths. Leave changed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat the critics say\n\n\n\n\n“Poignant and beautiful writing! Loved the message.” \n\n\n\nSOAS Student \n\n\n\n\n\n“Such a brilliant performance. Such emotion was conveyed.” \n\n\n\nSOAS Student \n\n\n\n\n\n“The performers were genuinely believable characters. Very passionate performance due to the important nature of the subject matter.” \n\n\n\nTottenham Audience Member \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nStandard – £12.00 \n\n\n\nPay more – £14.00 \n\n\n\nPay less – £10.00 \n\n\n\nGroup ticket for 10 – £8.00 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nTuesday 17 June 2025 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n1 hour 10 minutes + 20 minutes Q&A \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Old Fire Station\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Fire Station in Oxford is an arts centre with a unique social mission\, combining creativity with community impact.

SUMMARY:Blood Wedding
DESCRIPTION:Blood Wedding\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Blood Wedding\n\n\n\nPresented by University of Oxford student company Full Moon Theatre \n\n\n\nWritten by Federico García Lorca \n\n\n\nIn a new translation by Emma Nihill Alcorta \n\n\n\nA blade sharpened. A bride wedded. A blood-feud unleashed. \n\n\n\nUnder the burning Andalusian sun\, a woman is set to marry a man she does not love. Tables are laid\, vows are spoken\, and the woman condemns herself to a traditional life walled inside a house of stone. But another man has been riding to her window in the dead of night\, calling her name on the wind\, and she begins to wonder if the burden of tradition might be too heavy to bear. If passion drove you mad\, would you risk it all? \n\n\n\nWritten in the summer of 1932\, Lorca’s acclaimed rural tragedy is a story of arid land and tough people\, where societal expectations are rigidly defined and hidden yearnings simmer under the surface of convention. From the pen of internationally revered Spanish playwright Federico García Lorca\, Blood Wedding is a masterpiece of exquisite poetry and raw human longing. \n\n\n\nFeaturing a live\, original score and choreography inspired by Flamenco\, University of Oxford student company Full Moon Theatre presents a razor-sharp adaptation of a Spanish masterpiece that demands to be staged again and again. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFrom £14.00 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 04 to Saturday 07 June 2025 \n\n\n\nWednesday at 7.30pm\, Friday at 8.00pm\, Thursday and Saturday at 2.30pm and 7.30pm \n\n\n\nAge guidance: \n\n\n\n14+ \n\n\n\nWarning: \n\n\n\nThis show contains violence and strong references to violence and injury\, blood\, ableist and misogynistic language\, and references to death. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Oxford Playhouse\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\nOxford Playhouse and its Burton Taylor Studio present and produce several live performances and feature a rich array of British and international dramas\, family entertainment\, contemporary dance and music\, student and amateur shows\, comedy\, lectures and poetry. \n\n\n\nThe Playhouse not only produces and tours its own theatrical productions\, but it also fosters creativity through its Artists in Residence program and the Playhouse Plays Out series\, which brings unique events to various locations across the county. \n\n\n\nThe theatre’s Participation Team engages over 15\,000 individuals annually\, offering an extensive range of activities\, including post-show discussions\, workshops\, work experience opportunities\, holiday programs\, a youth theatre\, and a company for young performers. \n\n\n\nOxford Playhouse stands dedicated to its mission of being a Playhouse for all\, striving to ignite inspiration and bring about transformative experiences through its commitment to creativity on its stages\, within its community and online. \n\n\n\nDiscover more about Oxford Playhouse\, including travel\, access and venue information.

SUMMARY:...Earnest?
DESCRIPTION:…Earnest?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout …Earnest?\n\n\n\nThe Edinburgh Fringe smash-hit …Earnest? arrives following rave reviews ahead of an eagerly awaited West End run. \n\n\n\nWhen a traditional production of Oscar Wilde’s classic play gets underway\, everything seems to be going perfectly to plan… that is until the lead actor fails to arrive on cue and an actual audience member is chosen to star in the show. \n\n\n\n…Earnest?\n\n\n\nWhat follows is a madcap medley of impromptu games and spontaneous solutions as the desperate director does his best to keep this faithful production going. But with stage whiskey being swapped\, off-the-cuff auditions being held and muffins being eaten (no matter what state they’re in)\, there’s just no telling what this unique version of The Importance of Being Earnest is going to throw up.  \n\n\n\nEspecially when more audience members are drafted in to replace an ever-thinning cast… With the script ripped up and rewritten\, can the show reach its fabulous finale\, just as Oscar Wilde intended? \n\n\n\nThis one-of-a-kind comedy sensation is completely different\, completely chaotic\, and completely Wilde every single night. And who knows\, you might even become a star yourself! Guaranteed to have you laughing whether you’re sitting in the audience… or performing onstage …Earnest? is perfect for fans of The Play That Goes Wrong and Noises Off! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch the trailer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTickets prices: \n\n\n\nFrom £23.65 \n\n\n\nTickets are subject to a transaction fee of £3.95 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 04 to Thursday 05 June 2025 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n2 hours 15 minutes\, including an interval \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nMain auditorium
