Historical performance/costumed interpreters
Brief for historical performance/costumed interpreters for ‘Museum of Oxford’s 50th Birthday Party’ family event day
Closing date: 5pm on Monday 12 May 2025
Budget: £3,500 including all VAT, travel and expenses
The Museum of Oxford is seeking historical interpreters to design and deliver an engagement event as part of the Museum of Oxford’s 50th anniversary programme of events, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. We want to celebrate this milestone with our visitors by holding an event day that will be fun and engaging for our varied audiences.
The event should provide historical interpreters based on characters from the time periods covered by the Museum galleries. We are keen for the event to be representative of the audiences we want to attract and therefore a diverse range of characters (and interpreters) should be considered. Performances by historical interpreters should be accessible, fun, engaging and inclusive.
We are happy to consider other activities and performances in addition to the costumed historical interpreters which may complement the event requirements.
How to apply
We anticipate a minimum of 4 costumed interpreters performing on the day. We welcome applications from individuals or as part of a consortium performing together.
