Wigan Little Theatre Archive

In 2016 Wigan Little Theatre donated the Theatre's archive to Wigan Archives & Local Studies. The collection forms a wonderful record of the life of the theatre, its actors, volunteers and the hundreds of productions staged by the theatre.

The Archives are delighted to hold the records of the Theatre. With the help of the Archive Volunteers and Little Theatre members we will be cataloguing and digitising surviving programmes of performances, photographs and other ephemera collected by the Theatre.

For the last twenty years the Little Theatre has worked with local photographer Nick Fairhurst to record the Theatre's productions. Nick has kindly allowed the Archives to publish these images on Wigan & Leigh Archives Online as a record of the life of the Theatre; if you would like to purchase print copies of Nick's photographs, please visit his website at: nickfairhurstphotographer.com

If you have any documents or photographs you are interested in adding to the collection we would be delighted to here from you; please contact us at archives@wigan.gov.uk
