Based on the classic novel by Charles Dickens, this heart-warming play tells the story of orphan Oliver Twist who starts life in a Victorian workhouse before being sold into apprenticeship with an undertaker. He escapes and travels to London, where he meets the Artful Dodger, who belongs to a gang of young pickpockets led by the elderly criminal Fagin. At last, Oliver is looked after, fed and clothed. The gang treat him with kindness, in contrast to the brutality he received from so-called ‘respectable society’. But the gang also lead him into a life of crime and peril, and he soon finds himself in deep trouble.

This show, featuring talented young Cumbrian actors, will appeal to audiences of all ages.
