Burton Taylor Theatre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Burton Taylor Theatre ("The BT") is a 50-seater studio theatre owned by Oxford University. It is situated on Gloucester Street off Beaumont Street in Oxford, United Kingdom close to the Oxford Playhouse, a larger professional theatre, which manages the Burton Taylor Theatre on behalf of the University. The theatre is named after Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor.

It plays host to numerous, small-budget productions often starring students from the local University of Oxford. Recent notable productions have included a staging of the play The Second Maiden's Tragedy, which some scholars consider to be Cardenio, a lost play by William Shakespeare.
