Book now as Wigan Little Theatre tickets go on sale for its post-lockdown season

And this December's panto will only be a curtain-raiser for a whole new season starting in the new year.

Dick Whittington runs from December 2 to 18, and will herald a new beginning for members and audiences alike after being starved of stage productions since February last year.

Preparations and rehearsals are in full swing and cast and crew members say they can’t wait to bring life back into the iconic theatre.

A new, full season will begin in January 2022, kicking off with a favourite comedy, Teechers by John Godber from January 26 to February 5, which was already cast before lockdown.

Next will be Agatha Christie’s Towards Zero from March 9 to 19 and audition notices for this can be found at wiganlittletheatre.co.uk .
