This ground-breaking British musical premiered on London’s West End in June 1960, and ran for over 2,600 performances. The revival production played to packed houses until February 2011 before embarking on a UK tour. This much-loved musical vividly brings to life Dickens’ timeless characters, with its ever-popular story of the boy who asked for more. The show is full of Lionel Bart’s irresistible songs, including ‘Food Glorious Food’, ‘Consider Yourself’, You’ve Got to Pick a Pocket or Two’, ‘I’d Do Anything’, ‘Oom Pah Pah’, ‘As Long As He Needs Me’ and many more. It follows the adventures of the orphan Oliver as he escapes his bleak and lonely workhouse existence, journeys to London, and is taken in by a gang of apprentice pickpockets. When he’s falsely accused of exposing the gang by the frightening Bill Sikes, he discovers he has more friends than he ever imagined.

Oliver has a large, diverse cast and many parts need to be filled. It is open to adults and children over the age of 8, and is a great opportunity to be part of a wonderful musical!
