[Hollyoaks star Annie Wallace said:
“This was the news we’d been dreading.
One of the north’s most important grassroots theatres,
effectively killed off by the Arts Council withdrawing ALL funding.
Remember… the Royal Opera House got £22 MILLION
and still moaned about it. SAVE THIS THEATRE!”]


[“It is with great regret that Oldham Coliseum Theatre
is cancelling all forthcoming events from
Sunday 26 March 2023, including
the Spring-Summer programme and the 2023-24 pantomime
Sleeping Beauty.]
