Win tickets to see David Copperfield at Coliseum

Oldham Coliseum’s new production is an innovative take on one of Charles Dickens best-loved novels.

David Copperfield’s journey takes him from childhood into manhood… from rejection by his cruel stepfather, to life as a runaway and on his path to true love.

Alastair Cording’s vibrant adaptation squeezes the best bits of the original novel into an evening of theatre capturing the brilliance of Dickens’s famous storytelling.

Win two tickets for Tuesday 19 February at 7:30pm by simply emailing your name and contact details to info@gooldham.com

Entries close at 4pm on Monday 18 February. This competition is open to all - excluding Oldham Coliseum Theatre employees, volunteers or anyone connected with the competition. Tickets cannot be transferred to another performance.

If you aren’t successful this time, there is no need to miss out. David Copperfield runs until Saturday 23 February 2013.
