The Long Way Home at Oldham Coliseum Theatre

Every year, for the last 30 years an absent father has sent his son an empty box for his birthday. This year, following his absent fathers death, the son decides to find out why.Part autobiography, part exaggeration for comic and dramatic effect, The Long Way Home is a glorious, fantastical and absurd quest to come to terms with an absent fathers inheritance.A show devised by Ben Phillips in collaboration with Mark Loudon and John Wright (Told By An Idiot and Trestle).
