SUMMARY:Alfie Moore: Acopalypse Now
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £26*\nAge\n14+\nDuration\n1hr 50mins\nInterval\nYes\nWarning\nContains strong language\nVenue\nOxford Playhouse\n\n\n\n Offbeat\, revealing and very funny\nYou Magazine \n\n \nThe Four Horsemen of Rising Crime\, Global Warming\, AI and Culture Wars are galloping towards us. Are we on the road to hell? And can we avoid the potholes? In his brand new tour show ‘Fair Cop’ Alfie has the antidote to the breakdown of law and order\, fake news and the price of baked beans. \nHe’s encountered more than his fair share of egotistical dictators in his policing career and learnt when pragmatism\, and more than a dash of laughter\, can defuse even the most menacing showdown. \nJoin Alfie as he’s saddles up to see off those bullies on their pesky ponies. Doomsday is no laughing matter but this show certainly is. \n\n \n\n0 Stars \n Brilliantly funny…genuinely hilarious\nDavid Mitchell

SUMMARY:A Beautiful Thread
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Hambletts \nStarring Anton Lesser\n \nIn A Beautiful Thread\, Oxford Playhouse favourite\, Anton Lesser (Endeavour\, Wolf Hall\, Game of Thrones) tells the story of Thomas Hardy’s life – as dramatic as any of his books – in Hardy’s own words\, through his sublime poetry\, letters\, and great novels\, including Far From the Madding Crowd\, Tess of the d’Urbervilles\, and Jude the Obscure. \nAnton Lesser and Lucia Bonbright bring a hugely varied cast to dazzling life: from Hardy’s immortal characters\, Hardy himself\, his mother\, Jemima and wives\, Emma and Florence\, to George Bernard Shaw and Virginia Woolf! The show highlights Hardy’s humour (often overlooked!)\, his modernity\, the astonishing time-span he lived through\, and his global reach\, from Japan to Hollywood. Adapted by Deirdre Shields\, Hardy’s extraordinary writing shines bright as ever. \nThomas Hardy put more music in his novels than any other writer\, and Orchestra of the Swan’s Artistic Director\, David Le Page has devised a musical programme of shimmering beauty that weaves around the words\, from classical music to contemporary folk\, performed live by on-stage musicians from Orchestra of the Swan. \nFrom Hambletts\, the creative team that brought Red Sky at Sunrise: Laurie Lee in Words and Music to Oxford Playhouse.
