90 years of performances celebrated at Oldham Theatre.

The Lyceum Theatre celebrated their 90 year anniversary this season.

Lyceum Theatre Oldham ends its 90th Anniversary celebration with a classic birthday party comedy.

This Season has proved one of the most successful in its 90 years, including a brand new play performing to over 90% houses and the resurrection of the first play ever performed by Lyceum Players all those years ago.

They’ve chosen to end the Season on another high with Alan Ayckboun’s classic family drama THE TIME OF MY LIFE (7 – 15 June). A birthday descends into chaos as a toast to ‘happy times’ turns prophetically and hilariously wrong. Follow the stories of each family member through the past, the present and the future, indulge in the wonderful characters and keep an eye out for five waiters at the restaurant – you might begin to recognise them as the same person!

The production, which premiered at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough twenty seven years ago, will be directed by Melvyn Bates, whose last production was One For The Road in 2017. The cast is a mix of faces well known to Lyceum audiences, such as award-winning Maggie Blaszczok and new faces playing the younger generation.

Tickets at £9 each are on sale online https://www.lyceumtheatre.org.uk/ and from Box Office on 0161 628 2118 (booking fees may apply)
