Artist Coffee Morning

Oxford Playhouse is hosting another Artist Coffee Morning on Tuesday 16 February, from 10:30am to 12pm in the Main Foyer. It's a networking session for local creatives to connect with theatre-makers, writers and artists, and to chat with the Playhouse team about upcoming opportunities. If you're working in the arts around Oxford, it's a good spot to meet other people doing similar work and to get your own projects on their radar.

The Playhouse itself is a non-profit theatre company, founded in 1984 on Beaumont Street in the heart of the city. They present, produce and tour theatre across a few different scales — middle-scale, small-scale and off-site — and they support artists making new work alongside participation opportunities for children and young people. Their annual pantomime, staged in the West Oxford Wood, brings in over 36,000 people each year, and Artistic Director Mike Tweddle directs many of the company's productions.

These mornings are funded by Arts Council England, Oxford Council, the University of Oxford, St John's College and UK Theatre. It's free to attend, and while you can just turn up on the day, they also take bookings by email at artistdevelopment@oxfordplayhouse.com. It runs from 10:30am to 12pm in the Main Foyer, so you can drop in and head off whenever suits.
