After more than a hundred years performing to generations of Oldhamers – the Coliseum Theatre is preparing for its last curtain call.
There was an outpouring of love and support from residents, theatre-goers and actors when the iconic venue announced last month that it would be cancelling all future performances from the end of March.
Its financial security had been decimated by the confirmation in November that it had been dropped from the Arts Council England (ACE) funding portfolio.
