The Slope Has Arrived

Oldham Coliseum’s stage was given a new lease of life today as our resident production team along with set builders Splinter created a truly amazing backdrop for On The Piste.

 
Complete with a fully functional ski slope, Austrian alpine foliage, a moveable sauna and funky bar the set has everything the cast need to create a remarkable performance as the show opens this coming Thursday 3 September.

 
Take a look how the set looked as the production team put together the finishing touches ready for tomorrow’s rehearsal on the piste!

On The Piste Cast Learn to Ski

Today Oldham Coliseum’s latest cast members took a trip to Rossendale Ski for their first lesson on the piste. With a mixture of abilities the cast took to the slopes in an attempt to polish up their skiing skills ready for the productions opening night on 3 September.
