Audiences have loved Oliver! for generations! The musical is based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist and features songs like Consider Yourself, Food Glorious Food, & As Long as He Needs Me. This show takes a huge ensemble of all ages including a large group of children. We need people to play orphans, thieves, magistrates, bar maids, murderers, aristocrats, and a whole London town of people. This show is a great opportunity for people to get involved at all experience levels!
