Shades Of Grey

After the huge success of last Summer’s production of Don’t Turn My Life Into A Musical, the award winning Oldham Theatre Workshop is back with another new and engaging piece of theatre.

Thought provoking and relevant Shades Of Grey tells the stories of young people who’s lives have been affected by war.

On a clear September morning the New York skyline changed forever as the twin towers crumbled to dust. And now…

Amy looks proudly at the sponge cake she has prepared for her brother’s safe return from war.
Malik wakes once again from tormented dreams of his war torn homeland.

Carys stares at the block of flats across the road and wonders if she’ll be forgotten in the fall out.

 
At a time when this country is involved in a controversial conflict this piece of theatre offers new perspectives from which to view the political landscape.

 
Set to a moving and powerful score and performed by some of the most talented young people the North West has to offer this is as rousing a piece of musical theatre as you are likely to see this year.

It’s not as simple as black and white, night and day. There’s no clear line between right and wrong, only shades of grey.
