December 6-15, 2002. Start your holiday season with the classic family musical, OLIVER! as we follow a poor orphan through 17th Century London, encountering such classic Charles Dickens characters as the wily Fagin, tragic heroine Nancy, and the evil Bill Sykes. The beloved Lionel Bart score includes "Consider Yourself" "Food, Glorious Food" and "You've Got to Pick a Pocket or Two." OLIVER! is a delight for young and old alike!
