Area Stage Company brings the Tony and Olivier Award-winning musical Oliver!, Lionel Bart's classic based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist, to the Arsht Center. This spirited tale follows Oliver, a malnourished orphan, through his misadventures on the streets of Victorian England. After enduring mistreatment, deception and abduction by an assortment of lowlifes, Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance among a group of petty thieves and pickpockets led by the elderly Fagin. When Oliver is captured for a theft that he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr. Brownlow takes him in. Fearing the safety of his hideout, Fagin employs the sinister Bill Sikes and the sympathetic Nancy to kidnap him back, threatening Oliver’s chances of discovering the true love of a family.
