Although we’re all missing the tradition of the Oldham Coliseum pantomime this year, the theatre have found a way to beam Dame Dotty Trott and Cinderella into your home this Christmas. Panto Digital Storytelling will see these much-loved characters offer their perspective of the famous tales.

Audiences can choose to catch up with Dame Dotty Trott of Jack and the Beanstalk or hear Cinderella dish the dirt on those Ugly Sisters. Expect a few new twists in these classic stories.
