About:

The Oldham Coliseum is a theatre in Oldham town centre. We do lots of interesting work with the local community and loads of young people in Oldham are involved in our projects. The groups we currently are running are... TheatreLAB - a group of young people aged 11-16 who devise and perform theatre. They are working towards a large scale production in July 2010. DigiLAB - a group of young people aged 16-25 who are interested in discovering how new technologies can be used for communication, creativity and performance. They will be creating multimedia work for the production in July 2010. Theatre Pathways - a group of young people aged 14+ who are interested in working in theatre. They are investigating possible jobs and routes in to those jobs within Creative Industries. Watch this space to hear about their findings! Please get in touch if you are interested in joining a drama group or finding out more about theatre in general.
