Welcome
to May in Oxford. Spring is here, with lighter evenings and,
hopefully, increased temperatures, now is the time to explore
Oxford in all its glory.
See our excellent review for Shanghai 30’s, an immaculate
and authentic Chinese Restaurant located within touching distance
of Christ Church College.
For the kids, the excellent Horrible Histories return to The
New Theatre, along with Pirates of Penzance, and to sample
The Magic of Mozart, visit The Sheldonian on 9th
May.
Whatever your food tastes and desires, don’t forget our
packed Restaurant Section or our Restaurant Guide which you
can view at www.inoxford.com.
Enjoy May

The
Magic of Mozart
Sheldonian Theatre
Mozart Overture
to the Marriage of Figaro, K. 492, Symphony No.
29 in A major, K. 201 and Symphony No. 40 in G
minor, K. 550. Conducted by Enrique
Batiz.
Three facets of Mozart’s unique genius are captured in this programme – the
effervescence of the overture to his sunniest opera, the precocious teenage urbanity
of the 1774 Symphony in A major and the near-Beethovenian emotional intensity
of the great G minor symphony..... |

installation at the Oxford Castle site for one day only.
His installation will take place in the Castle Garden,
behind the Malmaison hotel and O3 Gallery. The work aims
to create a dialogue between the Malmaison hotel rooms/cells
