The lights might be dimmed at the Oldham Coliseum for now, but Christmas isn’t cancelled - it’s bursting out of the theatre walls and spilling right into the heart of the town. This December, Oldham Coliseum are teaming up with the legendary Jim Cartwright and Not Too Tame’s Jimmy Fairhurst to unwrap a brand-new festive cracker: A Christmas Fair.Think big laughs, big characters and stalls full of mischief and magic. Cartwright’s trademark comedy-with-a-kick collides with Not Too Tame’s no-barriers raucous spirit, creating a Christmas night out that’s equal parts belly-laughs and heart-wrenching heart-tugs. It’s brash, bold, and properly northern - where the mulled wine warms your hands, the candyfloss sticks to your Chrimbo jumper, and the stories sneak up on you with all the pathos of a snowball to the chest.
This isn’t sit-back-and-watch theatre. This is shoulder-to-shoulder, up-close-and-personal storytelling - the kind that makes you feel like you’re part of the action. Because at A Christmas Fair, everyone’s invited: the punters, the dreamers, the grafters and the chancers. And maybe, just maybe, the magic of Christmas will shine a little brighter for all of us.
So wrap up warm, grab your mates, and come find us under the twinkling lights. The fair’s in town. And it’s got your name all over it.
