OLIVER! - November 2006
Oliver! is a British musical with music and lyrics by Lionel Bart. It first appeared in the West End in 1960 and enjoyed a long run which launched the careers of several child actors including Davy Jones.
The musical is based upon Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and was the first adaptation for stage of a Dickens novel
The original London production of Oliver! opened in the New Theatre in June 1960. Among the original cast were Ron Moody as Fagin, Georgia Brown as Nancy, and Barry Humphries in a small role as a humourous undertaker.
In 1968 the musical was made into a film using some big names who had never appeared in the stage show. It stars Ron Moody, Oliver Reed, Harry Secombe, Mark Lester, Jack Wild, and Hugh Griffith.
