The rats return to help save independent cinema and local venues - with your host Alfred Ratcock (plus compliments from The Chef).

NOTE: if you cannot afford a ticket, please drop us a message on Instagram (@hotrats.oxford) or give us an email at hotrats.oxford@gmail.com. Nobody will be turned away due to lack of funds, but tickets may be sold out on the door if you don't let us know in advance.

This one's a special: the rats are loose in the Ultimate Picture Palace on Jeune Street, just off Cowley Road.

The UPP is Oxford's oldest cinema, community-owned by over 1,200 local people, and fighting for a lease long enough to secure its future.

Head over to savetheupp.com and donate to help keep this amazing local venue alive.

‘Hot Rats’ is a cabaret night for experimental, sexy, whimsical, genre/gender bending, queer, poetry, comedy, drag, music and performance art in Oxford.

Doors at 7:30pm. Show/exposé starts at 8pm. Bring your mates, bring your bodies and come and nibble away at our ears…

See ya there little ratties! 🔥🐀
