Witness a brutal and bold take on Oliver Twist, as it takes you through the dark alleys of London!

Written by Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist was critically acclaimed for exposing the cruel treatment of orphans during the mid-19th century and also its unromantic portrayal of the lives of criminals. Award-winning dramatist Bryony Lavery has adapted this tale in conjunction with Leeds Playhouse to put disabled artists on center stage. Amy Leach, who has directed The Wonderful Wizard of OZ, The Shelter, and We All Fall Down is all set to direct the production which promises to dazzle audiences from across the world!

The story

Born into a poor family, Oliver Twist is left orphaned after his father’s mysterious disappearance and his mother’s death during childbirth. Oliver finds a home in a sweatshop, where he is mistreated. Soon, however, Oliver encounters Artful Dodger and Fagin and joins their troupe of pickpockets. He revels in this new exciting and adventurous life as a criminal. His happiness, however, is short-lived and he finds himself falling under the influence of the vile Bill Sykes. Will Oliver be able to turn around a life filled with misfortune and poverty?

Oh my what an amazing time we had the performance was outstanding. I have never used headout before. But will definitely be using them again. So easy to get my e-tickets and added it as a widget to my screen so didn't have to scan through my emails Brilliant

The atmosphere in the cosy Gielgud theatre was perfect for Oliver. The cast was incredible. By the end when they were singing "you're one of the family", you really felt that you were. We grew up on this musical and it was so moving to feel like 'part of the family'. The children were 100% present to their characters and were totally believable. The adult cast were the same. We felt particularly lucky to have seen Simon Lipkin as Fagan. You really felt his good heart alongside his younger counterpart who was also fabulous, Aaron Macgregor as the Artful Dodger. Absolutely amazing how perfect each character was in this wonderful production. Wish I could go over and over but we're home in Australia now and can only enjoy our memories.

Seeing Oliver! in London with my wife was an unforgettable experience. The cast was absolutely incredible, but what truly amazed us was how everything came together so perfectly: the staging, the set design, the atmosphere, and the timeless music. I laughed, I cried, and I celebrated along with the characters on stage. I've now returned to Portugal and find myself recommending this show to everyone I know. If you ever have the chance to see Oliver!, do it at least once. It is far more than a musical; it's an experience that stays with you long after the final curtain falls. A memory I will treasure for years to come.

Being from Australia and seeing such a wonderful show. The main actor performance and female actor singing. The children dancing. The voices were amazing. Stage sets were exceptional. I just had a 13 yo child sitting near us that kept getting up, leaving and coming back, and banging their seat each time, without the parent doing anything and it interrupted you enjoying the matinee show. The usher should have said something.

Een schitterende voorstelling. Fantastisch gezongen, gewoon subliem. Roch een tip om de beleving volmaakt te maken: de bovenste 2 ringen zijn plaatsen waar het zicht op het podium beperkt is en de beleving minder intens maakt. Volgende keer ga ik voor plaatsen op het eerste verhoog 😊
