Oldham council pledges £10m to refurbish theatre after campaign led by actor Julie Hesmondhalgh

The theatre’s shock closure was announced last year, after Arts Council England withdrew its funding. It cited concerns over management, while Oldham council, which owns the building, said that it was “no longer fit for purpose”.
