Sleeping Beauty
We all know the story of Sleeping Beauty, right?
Evil fairy curses baby, baby grows into a beautiful teenage princess, princess pricks her finger on a spindle and... time travels across 1000 years.
Oh no, she doesn’t? Oh yes, she DOES in this spellbinding new production brought to you by Oxford Playhouse.
Our Aurora must summon all of her fairy-given gifts - true friendship, intelligence, bravery and a good night’s sleep (along with a teddy bear and a mysterious 1985 Smash Hits Yearbook) to put things right and regain her rightful place in the kingdom of Oxland.
Join us at The Playhouse from Fri 22 Nov 2024 to Sun 5 Jan 2025 to see all your favourite loveable (and downright boo-able) panto heroes and villains in a toe-tapping extravaganza with a generous, deely boppered sprinkling of 80s nostalgia.
A magical and festive experience perfect for all the family. Never mind goodnight, this is sure to be the BEST night.

Hansel & Gretel
This Christmas we’ll be transforming The North Wall into an atmospheric winter wonderland full of magic, mystery, and misadventure. Join Hansel, Grettel, and a host of bewitching characters and feathered friends as they serve up a musical menu of catchy songs, mystical spells, and just a touch of winter magic.
Journey with us deep into the heart of the woodland, where the Witches of Winter rise from the frozen earth to prepare for the awakening of their leader, a mysterious witch known as the Priestess of Winter. Only the birds circling in the cold air high above can save them from the most powerful witch in the land.
