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
This session will explore several manifestos which have recently been published by contemporary theatre companies, particularly the NT Ghent Manifesto and New Diorama Theatre’s Intervention 01. This discussion will hope to raise issues of inclusivity, sustainability and diversity in modern theatre-making practices while also considering the role of public manifestos in constructing and developing visions of future drama.
As part of the TORCH Reimagining Performance Network, this reading group will meet fortnightly to discuss texts, read plays, and watch theatre in a relaxed and social setting.
No prior study or knowledge of theatre required – all are welcome!
