Taking Steps
Elizabeth is taking steps to leave her husband. Her husband is taking steps to buy a house for them to live in. Mark is taking steps to marry his fiancé, a woman recently arrested for soliciting.
Simultaneously set over three floors of a crumbling mansion house, Taking Steps follows this mismatch of people over the course of one night and a following morning, as confusion and hilarity ensues.
Alan Ayckbourn’s classic comedy, one of the funniest plays in the English language, demonstrates that ordinary situations can become extraordinary through simple misunderstanding and bad timing.
Taking Steps will be the first Coliseum production staged away from our Fairbottom Street site during their refurbishment. The play will be performed in the round – just as originally intended – at The Grange Arts Centre. It will also be directed by Coliseum regular and protégé of Alan Ayckbourn Robin Herford, who played Mark in the original 1979 production of Taking Steps.
Direct bookings via Go See This are not available at this time. You can find out full details of the event and book tickets for Taking Steps on the Oldham Coliseum Theatre website.
