Oxford Playhouse, Historic theatre in Beaumont Street, Oxford, England
The Oxford Playhouse contains a main auditorium with 663 seats and presents theatrical performances, musicals, dance shows, and comedy acts throughout the year.
Edward Maufe and F. G. M. Chancellor designed this Grade II listed building in 1938, incorporating stone facades to match the Regency architecture of Beaumont Street.
