Music, Lyrics and Book by Lionel Bart
Oliver is a young orphan in a large workhouse who draws a great deal of attention to himself when he asks for more at the dinner table. No one likes a greedy orphan, so Oliver finds himself sold to an undertaker. He runs away, and is taken in by a group of pickpockets who try to teach the innocent boy to be a thief. Eventually he escapes from the clutches of the crime ring and finds love, happiness, and a home. Based on the novel 'Oliver Twist' by Charles Dickens, Oliver! the Musical vividly brings to life Dickens' timeless characters with its ever-popular story of the orphan who asked for more.
