OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk

Ben Haggarty
Ben Haggarty is one of the UK’s foremost performance storytellers. For over 40 years he has pioneered the retelling of traditional oral narratives (international folk tales, fairytales, epics and myths) in performance on contemporary stages – finding new contexts and purposes for their telling, researching global performative oral traditions and advocating a reappraisal of the status of orality. He is Visiting Research Fellow in the Creative Arts at Merton College.
