A Playhouse for Everyone
Bringing live performance, drama, dance, comedy to our stage in the heart of Oxford. We also work with over 15,000 young people a year through our young people's theatre company and community activities.

Open House
At Oxford Playhouse we believe that everyone, whatever their background or circumstance, should have the chance to experience live performance.
Watching theatre can transport us to far away places. It lets us time travel and journey alongside characters with similar and dissimilar experiences to our own - it helps us to empathise, to celebrate, to laugh and to cry. We might be a bit biased, but we think theatre and live performance is pretty good for the soul!
That's why every year we give away around 2,500 tickets absolutely free to community groups, individuals or school groups that might otherwise not be able to attend.
We call this programme Open House.
Please help us to keep this valuable work going by donating to The Playhouse today...
