Based on the novel OLIVER TWIST by Charles Dickens, this Tony award-winning
musical adaptation springs to life with some of the most memorable
characters and songs ever to hit the stage; "Food Glorious Food", "Where Is
Love", "Consider Yourself" and "As Long As He Needs Me" to name just a few
of the songs that earned Lionel Bart the Tony for Best Original Score.
OLIVER is one of the few musicals to win an academy award for Best Picture
and is widely hailed as a true theatrical masterpiece by actor and
audiences alike.


The streets of Victorian England are full of life as Oliver, a malnourished
orphan in a workhouse, becomes a neglected apprentice of an undertaker.
Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance among a group of petty
thieves and pickpockets lead by elderly Fagin. When Oliver is captured for
a theft he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr Brownlow, takes him
in.  Fearing for the safety of his hideout, Fagin employs the sinister Bill
Sikes and sympathetic Nancy to kidnap him back, leaving Oliver’s chances of
discovering the true love of family in jeopardy.
