Take Part

Community

Through regular engagement, and bespoke activities, Oxford Playhouse partners with local and regional organisations and charities throughout the year, to ensure that everyone has a chance to be creative.

Working with communities who often feel under-represented, and those who may need to access creativity in an adapted way, our community projects look to empower people across all of Oxfordshire.

Social Thursdays

Initially launched during the pandemic, our Tea Talks project brought together later-in-life participants from around Oxfordshire, sharing memories and stories through weekly phone calls and create radio play projects.

This year, we are hosting free creative activities, as part of our Tea Talks Social Thursday events.

    Every year, Oxford Playhouse pledges to give away up to 2,000 free tickets to local community groups and charities.

    To facilitate this, we have set up the Oxford Playhouse Community Tickets Membership Scheme.
