Season Five begins with Oliver! The Musical – the musical version of Dickens' classic melodrama about the adventures of an orphan redeemed from a life of cruel poverty and crime by an act of unselfish courage. Oliver Twist runs away from an orphanage and is taken by the Artful Dodger to Fagin's den, where he joins in a series of misadventures with Fagin's street gang until he is befriended by Mr. Brownlow. An event for all ages not to be missed.
Oliver! The Musical was first presented in London, where it played for 2,618 performances at the New Theatre. It played for 774 performances on Broadway at the Imperial and Shubert Theatres starring Georgia Brown and Clive Revill as Nancy and Fagin. It has been revived on Broadway several times, as in 1984 at the Mark Hellinger Theatre, and in London in 1994 at the Palladium starring Jonathan Pryce as Fagin.
