Oxlip Theatre Company

Wytham Woods

<h3><strong>Both Saturday and Sunday are now SOLD OUT. We are watching the weather and will update ticket holders over the next day or so. Fingers crossed!</strong></h3><h3><strong>_________________________________</strong></h3><h3><strong>Oxlip Theatre Company</strong>, an ensemble of local 16-18 year olds, is now rehearsing at the magical venue of Wytham Woods (Oxford) for their midsummer weekend performances of Shakespeare's <strong>Midsummer Night's Dream.</strong></h3><h3>Under the guidance of director <strong>Ruth Platt</strong> (Oxford-based film maker), they have devised a fast-paced, unique and contemporary version of the heady lovers' quarrel. </h3><h3>Performances take place on the <strong>evenings</strong> of <strong>Saturday 19th June (8pm)</strong> and <strong>Sunday 20th June (7.30pm) </strong>as part of the Wolvercote and Wytham Festival.</h3><h3><em>For people unable to manage the 15-20 minute uphill walk from Wytham Car Park to the woodland theatre, there will be a free shuttle available, starting one hour before the start of each show, and again after the show.  (See contact details below for booking.)</em></h3><h3>Groups can be seated in bubbles of (up to) six, and tickets (including a drink at the interval) are £12 for adults  and £7 for children. Each seat is denoted by a thin slice of tree  so do please bring your own cushion to be more comfortable!</h3><h3>Bring blankets to keep warm, and umbrellas just in case! </h3><h3>For £3 return, a mini-bus will provide transfers from central Wolvercote to Wytham Woods Car Park (with a stop in Wytham village White Hart car park en route) in time to walk to the performance site. Parking is also available at the Wytham Woods customer car park  (including overspill). </h3><h3>For Festival travel and transport related advice, please leave a message for Andrew on 07704 742 112. (All messages left on the previous number have been recorded and responses will be made. For general enquiries about Festival transport, please call 07936 063 981.)</h3><h3><strong>Otherwise, please arrive in good time for the 15-20 minute brisk walk </strong>to the woodland theatre setting. </h3><h3>Disabled parking  is available next to the performance site, although please be aware that access to the auditorium itself is a little uneven.  A <strong>steward will give you access through Gibson Gate </strong>- the main entrance to the woodland.</h3><h3>The show is suitable for 8 years plus. Younger children are welcome, however. Toilets are available on site.  We regret that as this is an entirely voluntary non-profit initiative, there are no refunds. </h3><p>Any queries please contact oxliptheatrecompany@yahoo.com.</p>
