Note the late starting time (although also note that the play is only an hour long), so I would suggest that we meet at a pub beforehand, say from 8pm. Details to follow.

Description:
University of Oxford Student Season: Trinity Term 2026
From the York Mystery Cycle
A contemporary, experimental rewriting inspired by medieval mystery cycles.
Adam and Eve have awaited the coming of Christ for over four thousand years. After his crucifixion, Christ descends into Hell to free the righteous. He whom Satan thought he had defeated comes to shatter the gates of Hell.
A bold new production featuring an original text and newly composed music, offering a reimagining of biblical figures and new perspectives on their embodied presence.
