Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story

The musical tells the story of the legendary performer, who was tragically killed, aged just 22.

It celebrates his life featuring some of his greatest hits including From Peggy Sue to Rave On from That’ll be the Day to True Love Ways.

With the Big Bopper’s Chantilly Lace and Ritchie Valens’ La Bamba the audience reaches musical overload.

Read Sam Abercromby's review here.

Time: 19:30 (not Fri-Sat); 20:30 (Fri-Sat); 17:00 (Fri only); 17:30 (Sat only)
Price: £7.50-£32.00 concession

Noises Off

This comic romp offers two plays for the price of one.

Whilst the traditional British Farce Nothing On is being performed, a real life farce is unfolding backstage during the show’s final rehearsal and the ensuing disastrous tour.

Nothing On and NOISES OFF interlock as the actors make their exits from one play, only to find themselves making entrances into the other and back again.

Amidst such confusion can they ever get to the end of the show?!


Time: 19:30 (20:00 Fri); 14:30 (Sat only)
Price: £14.50-£24
Venue: Oxford Playhouse
