We were invited to follow the Behind the Scenes journey of the Oxford Mystery Cycle performed at St Edmund Hall on Saturday, 26 April 2025. This is a mix of cast and audience discussion of the event as it was happening. Many thanks to the organisers for inviting us to wander around the event with microphones. Recorded by Liza Graham and Robert Crighton.
