Oxford Playhouse is a thriving 600 seat theatre, presenting a wide range of shows including drama, family work, comedy, music, poetry and lectures. Contemporary dance is also a vital part of the programme and the theatre brings some of the finest companies to Oxford every season. Oxford Playhouse also manages the 50 seat Burton Taylor Studio outside of University term-time. Though small, this is a wonderfully intimate space which is available for local artists to perform in.

Pegasu is a key arts centre based in East Oxford. It is a unique place where you can see some of the freshest and most exciting contemporary performing arts from all over the world. It is also a place where you can try things out for yourself. The theatre plays an important role in the dance community as a home to youth dance and as a supporter of emerging talent. Professional performing companies, like Gelede Dance, are creating new work and teaching from their base at Pegasus.

Welcome to Oxford Castle, Oxford's oldest new quarter!

The site was once home to the Norman Oxford Castle, then the infamous Oxford Prison. Parts of these historic buildings remain, and have shaped the development of Oxford Castle as it stands today, including St George’s Tower. The secrets of the site’s history are unlocked in the exciting visitor attraction, Oxford Castle – Unlocked. The rest of the site is now home to an exciting hub of bars and restaurants, including the brasserie at Malmaison, Café 1071, Prezzo, La Tasca, The Real China, Pizza Express, Krispy Kreme, The Swan & Castle, and The Living Room. Oxford Castle also boasts O3 Gallery, with its dynamic programme of exhibitions and events all year round, not forgetting the gorgeous Malmaison Boutique Hotel in the heart of the development.
