This musical adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic story “Oliver Twist”, is a tale of a run-away orphan who joins a group of boys trained to be pickpockets by an elderly mentor.
Oliver is sold to an undertaker after asking for more dinner at the orphanage. Escaping to London he is taken in by Fagin to join his gang of child pickpockets. Wrongly accused of a theft he meets a more kindly gentleman who takes him in, to the concern of one of Fagin’s old pupils, the violent Bill Sykes. In the middle is Nancy, Sykes’ girl whom Oliver has come to trust.
Featured are several memorable hit songs including “Food Glorious Food,” “Consider Yourself,” “I’ll Do Anything (For You),” “Pick A Pocket Or Two,” and many, many more.
The Tri-Lakes Community Theatre production is under the direction of Stephen Jay and produced by Jordan Hawkins and Glenda Justus.
Lead cast members include Jack Cathcart and Madeline Sparks as Oliver Twist, John Spencer as Fagin, Topher James as the Artful Dodger, Kristen Cartwright as Nancy, and Richard Daum as Bill Sykes.
Over 50 local area actors, many under the age of ten, make up the rest of this amazing cast of talented performers who will sing, dance and act their way into your hearts. To top it all off, an orchestra of live musicians will have you tapping your feet and singing along with the musical score.
