An evening of short plays

 

THE LOWER BOATHOUSE is a spectacular riverside venue, intimate and atmospheric, set alongside the River Cherwell in Oxford. In this context it lends itself readily to summertime music and theatre art events.

 

This is the fourth summer season in the Lower Boathouse and It promises to be a great year for theatre and music evenings.

 

For our second Lower Boathouse event of this season we’ll be moving away from music & melodies…instead delving in to the world of acting, with an evening of short plays performed by the Oxford Playwrights Group.

 

Oxford Playwrights Group meet monthly to read and discuss members’ scripts and to plan productions. Their other activities include dedicated writing sessions and events with guest theatre professionals.

 

Previous theatre events have proven to be popular and entertaining.This will be the fourth evening of plays from Oxford Playwrights at our Lower Boathouse Riverside Venue, Cherwell Boathouse.

 

The theme for this years plays is ALTERNATIVE FACTS. This is explored through the performance of six short plays.

 

We’ll be doing a 3 course light theatre menu. Canape starter, bowl food main and canape style pudding. Food can be ordered and payed for before the performance start. There will be a break halfway interval for food to be served.
