Oliver! Synopsis:

Oliver! is Charles Dickens’ touching tale of an orphaned boy in search of a place to call home. The story follows Oliver’s escape from a workhouse to the streets of Paddington Green. Once there, he is taken in by a kind, yet slightly sinister, old gentleman named Fagin and a group of pick-pockets lead by a young boy named the Artful Dodger. Oliver’s adventures continue as he meets a host of memorable characters and, in the end, finds the one thing he longed for the most – a family.

This Tony Award winning musical will have audiences singing along with familiar favorites including Food, Glorious Food; Consider Yourself at Home, and Who Will Buy?
