All the shows coming to Preston and Chorley in January

Across January, a wide variety of solo-stars, plays and musicals will be on at the Preston Playhouse and Chorley Theatre*.

To save you from scrolling through their websites yourselves, we’ve collated all the show listings from across the four venues below.

As well as the date, you can find some quick show information and the price of tickets.
