This September the Coliseum will be staging Road, Jim Cartwright’s (Rise and Voice of Little Voice) powerful game changing snapshot of Lancashire life during Thatcher’s England in the '80s, that is still as relevant as today as it was when it was first performed over 30 years ago.

The cast features Richard J Fletcher, best known to audiences as Oldham Coliseum’s much loved Pantomime dame, now taking on a very different kind of role as the drunken narrator Scullery; Paula Lane (Kylie Platt in Coronation Street) as Lane; Will Travis (Mr Squires in This is England 86, 88 & 90, Channel 4 as well appearing as Dick Lampard in Where the Heart is and Neil Beckett in Coronation Street, both ITV);  John Askew (Rita, Sue and Bob Too, Out of Joint and Turkey, Oldham Coliseum Theatre) as Joey/Eddie; as Professor/Jerry; Zoe Iqbal (The Importance of Being Earnest, Dukes Theatre and Lawrence Batley Theatre) as Louise; Shaban Dar (As You Like It, Northern Broadsides & tour) as Skin Lad/Barry/Louise’s brother; Alyce Liburd (Now is Good, Storyhouse, Chester and Four Minutes Twelve Seconds, Oldham Coliseum Theatre) as Clare, Kofi Dennis (The Wiz, Hope Mill Theatre) as Bisto/Blowpipe; and our very own Claire Storey (Adrian Mole The Musical, Queen’s Theatre, Hornchurch and The Railway Children, Hull Truck Theatre) as Molly/Helen.

This summer, York Theatre Royal present another stunning mid-scale community production, featuring a local ensemble cast and live choir performances. Kate Hampson plays The Coppergate Woman. She is a Valkyrie, shepherd of the dead and dying, a servant of Odin, ready to guide lost souls to the halls of Valhalla. Because Ragnarok is coming. Right now. When the gods will perish, and fire will triumph, and out of the ashes, finally, the world will rise again. Made anew.
