Oxford Theatre Shows

Oxford is most famous for its prestigious university which has seen politicians, royalty, Nobel Prize Winners and entertainers pass through its doors. Much like its Cambridge counterpart, the university has a rich theatrical scene, with former members of the Oxford Revue comedy group including stage and screen writers Alan Bennett and Richard Curtis, and comedic actors Michael Palin and Sally Phillips. Outside of the university’s doors, the wider city has an array of performance venues and strong connections to art and literature; Lewis Carroll (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland) and Philip Pullman (His Dark Materials) have both called the city home. With UK tours of top West End shows hitting the stage, anyone seeking out shows in Oxford will find no shortage of entertainment.
