The Crawl

Old Fire Station

2 October 2026, 7:30PM

In this explosive physical comedy, two swimmers go head-to head in the race of a lifetime – with no water. 

Facing off in the competition this year: Mytha, a decorated swimmer from the icy north, and Steve, a plucky underdog from Dead-endton, UK. And don’t discount French favourite Debussy, who may or may not be sitting in the audience right now…   

Two performers bring to life top-level athletes, charismatic commentators and even a glacier in a splashy display of virtuosic physicality. Featuring cinematic storytelling, audience interaction, and original musical underscoring, The Crawl dives into a world of absurd competition.

Described as “a masterclass in physical theatre” (Broadway World ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) and featuring “masterful comedic talents” (EdFringe Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐), The Crawl is a riotous show with a heartwarming undercurrent. 

Fresh off a May 2026 UK tour, The Crawl comes to Oxford for 1 night only on 2 October 2026.
