"In 1987 and following the first defeat for their team in 1 1 years, Oxford vowed to gain revenge and recruited a number of American international class, postgraduate rowers. Sadly they all fell out resulting in the "Oxford Mutiny" forcing the selectors to drop all of them in favour of the reserve crew, who then went on to win by four lengths."Explore Mortlake

Resurgam - FIRESIDE FOLKTALES FRINGE
Its opening night for the recently rebuilt Thornfields Bar, and Janey is taking centre stage for the first time in years.

Drawing on both autobiographical accounts of the performer and the fictional, but transcendent, friendship of Jane and Helen in Jane Eyre , Resurgam explores the legacy of the unnoticed, and the hope for new dreams amid the ashes.
