Last weekend we finally opened our pantomime Aladdin,
after two year's waiting in the Lamp due to the pandemic. Our fun-filled
production has already received rave reviews from audiences and critics alike
and it is so joyous to have pantomime back in Oldham. What
you see on stage is just a part of the true magic of theatre, and our
Learning and Engagement team have been working with our local Roma and Romani
Gypsy communities using theatre and creative practise to amplify their voices
and share their traditions, and with young people to welcome Little Amal to
Rochdale and to support an artist in the development of their own craft with The
Proud Trust's Youth Out In Oldham group. We're
currently looking for theatre goers and participants, artists and people
interested in questioning our work to join our Community Steering Group as
we move towards the next stage in the Coliseum's story. The group will get
together and consider themes relating to our programmes, the theatre
building, what the theatre means/could mean to you and how we can make our
work more inclusive and accessible. Read
all about it and more, below. |

Widow
Twankee and her sons Aladdin and Wishee Washee run Twankee's Laundry,
Oldham's only hold-out against the evil Imperial Washing Corporation. When
Aladdin finds a magic lamp, it seems all his wishes have been granted, until
the evil Aunty Banazar steals it... With
help from the Jinn of the Lamp and the Spirit of the Ring, join Aladdin as he
tries to save Princess Jasmine, Oldham, and the world! |

"The Coliseum may
not be Greater Manchester's largest theatre, but it punches well above its
weight, providing a high quality show which any venue would be envious
of." «««« "If like us, you’re
looking for traditional pantomime fun – Oldham Coliseum is THE place to
go." |
