| Description: | CHRIST'S HOSPITAL THEATRE - Christ's Hopsital School, Horsham “Please sir, I want some more.” Oliver’s innocent request lands him in trouble with the workhouse Matron and the Beadle and sets him on his famous adventure. He is sold to a local undertaker, but runs away and is picked up by the Artful Dodger who invites Oliver to ‘Consider Yourself’ one of us! Fagin’s Gang set out to ‘Pick A Pocket or two’ and take Oliver along, but he is arrested and taken before the magistrates. When he finds Oliver was an innocent bystander, Mr Brownlow, the victim of the gang, takes Oliver in. Fagin’s Thief, Bill Sykes is afraid Oliver will give away their set-up and sends his girlfriend , Nancy to get Oliver back. Eventually Oliver is restored to Mr Brownlow, who by a million to one chance happens to be his Grandfather. Fagin sets out to rebuild his gang with the Dodger. ‘Food glorious Food’ and ‘Where is Love’ are just two of the popular songs from Lionel Bart’s lively musical based on Charles Dicken’s Oliver Twist. This classic show was produced in the Autumn of 2003 to huge critical acclaim by the adult wing of the company, ‘Act Too Productions’. Now the youngsters from ‘Act Too Juniors’ have been given the great opportunity to produce the show for their Summer School. Along with the prospect of working with the best part of the original creative team, they also get to play all parts including Fagin, Nancy and Sykes. Following hot on the tail of their recent sell-out hit production ‘Bugsy Malone’ at the Capitol Theatre, Horsham, this is certain to be yet another ‘Act Too Juniors’ show not to be missed! |
