We Have Winners!
Congratulations to the winners of the 2022 10-Minute Play Contest! We had over 200 submissions by talented writers, and we appreciate all who submitted work.
The Grand Prize, 20 Avon, is a modern comedy by Kristin Andrea Hanratty. It explores a space where virtual and reality collide.
2nd Place, Patients, a drama by George Kehoe, captures an act of compassion, which leads to an unexpected outcome.
3rd Place was a tie. Buried Fish and Lilacs, a poignant, poetic piece by Michael W Moon & Guestbook, which reveals fractures in a sibling relationship.
Success! Peppermint Bear and The Taming of the Shoe
We enjoyed kicking off the holiday season with family-friendly musical and hearing Santa’s Elf Ensemble sing. We had three sold out houses in Oxford at the Powerhouse, and Santa dropped by for photo ops. Thanks to all who came out. We were also able to tour the show to Taylor and Harmontown. What a delight it was to spread holiday cheer throughout the county.
Success! Another Side of Tennessee Williams
Theatre Oxford’s opening production was a success thanks to great audiences, generous sponsors, and marvelous volunteers. The Dog Enchanted by the Divine View, The Case of the Crushed Petunias, The Pretty Trap, and Mister Paradise revealed a more hopeful and humorous side of Williams. We also paid tribute to the late Colby Kullman, introduced Colby’s Corner (book exchange) as well and Coffee with Colby. Thanks to all who participated onstage, backstage, offstage, and in the audience!
Hoka Days Fringe Festival
Theatre Oxford premiered two short plays during YAC’s Hoka Days at the Powerhouse. Playwrights LaToya Faulk and Charlie Finesilver attended, as did a good, and receptive crowd! Congrats to all who made the evening of community and artistry a success!
