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
The Reimagining Performance Network is launching its podcast! ‘Practice Makes’ stages discussions between leading performance scholars and theatre practitioners – actors, playwrights, directors and more — to crack open the connections between theatre research and performance in practice.
At this launch event, presenters Helen Dallas and Madeleine Saidenberg will introduce the podcast and share a teaser of the first episode, featuring Jess Thom of Touretteshero and Hannah Simpson, author of Samuel Beckett and Disability Performance, discussing relaxed performance, accessibility, and the Touretteshero production of Beckett’s Not I.
A light lunch will be provided. A remote tweet-along event will follow when the episode is released the following day so that those unable to attend in person can be involved.
