Look no further!00Productions are delighted to present a virtual cabaret night, filled with songs from shows that have been affected by the Coronavirus pandemic.

In aid of this, we are using this event to raise money for three wonderful charities committed to supporting the arts in general, as well as theatre practitioners and minorities affected most during this time. Our three selected charities are: Artists Fund Artists (AFA), National Black Arts Alliance (NBAA), and Oxford Playhouse. See the "Songs From The Old World" project page!
A devastatingly honest, intimate and universal exploration of two people and how their journeys interact.Taking place over 5 crucial years, The Last Five Years follows the individual and shared lives of Cathy and Jamie, as they grow together and grow apart. Beginning from the final moments, Cathy demonstrates the devastating effects of a relationship that has crumbled, whilst Jamie revels in the naïve discovery of what he thinks is true love for the first time. From here, the two embark along the same relationship in opposite directions, although along two very different paths. As Jamie becomes increasingly obsessed with his own success, we see Cathy struggling to make it as an artist and find personal prosperity.With a nuanced and ultimately soul-destroying score, The Last Five Years is a story of discovery and accomplishment, as much as it is one of love and deceit.00Productions is thrilled to present a fresh piece of student musical theatre created during quarantine. Despite the current situation regarding Covid-19 and the cancellation of Trinity term, this production of The Last Five Years has been uniquely and remotely created. With so much theatre being cancelled amidst the current climate, we seek to persevere and continue to bring this to the public, serving as a testament to our passion for the arts. We’d love for you to join us in a one-off viewing of the show! See the "The Last Five Years" project page!

As we watch Faustus’ exploration of his new powers, the world around him begins to crumble as the clock inescapably counts down towards his final moment of reckoning.‘Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscribed in one self-place, but where we are is hell, and where hell is, there must we ever be’ See the "Doctor Faustus" project page!
