The Lancastrian Theatre Organ Trust preserves the craftsmanship and musicianship of yesterday through the provision of high quality and entertaining concerts utilising the cream of the UK’s and overseas cinema organists.

The Lancastrian Theatre Organ Trust was formed over 50 years ago, to preserve the Wurlitzer organs that were contained in the Odeon and Gaumont cinemas on Oxford Road in Manchester, when they had to be removed to allow redevelopment of the cinemas through division to multi-screen and other purposes.
