Margaret "Meg" Ann Twycross FSA is a literary scholar and historian specialising in medieval theatre and iconography.
[1] After a Quaker childhood spent in Lancashire, Trinidad, and Barking (Essex), Twycross went to Somerville College, Oxford.
After time spent living in Chile and the Arabian Gulf,[citation needed] she returned to Oxford as college lecturer at both Worcester College and St Edmund Hall before, in 1974, moving to Lancaster University where she has been for the rest of her academic career.
Performance research from 1969 onward has seen her productions in original venues, from the streets of York and Chester to Great Halls in colleges and country houses.
[3] An early interest in humanities computing and the presentation of material on screen was reflected in her teaching and the construction of websites, which include The Journeys of George Fox 1652-1653.
