Consider yourself at home with Oliver! JR., the Broadway Junior version of Lionel Bart's classic musical based on Charles Dickens' novel, Oliver Twist. The Tony and Olivier Award-winning show is one of the few musicals to win an Academy Award for Best Picture and is widely hailed as a true theatrical masterpiece by actors and audience members alike.

The streets of Victorian England come to life as Oliver, a malnourished orphan in a workhouse, becomes the neglected apprentice of an undertaker. Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance amongst 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.

Oliver! JR. is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

Safety Procedures

Our first priority is the safety of our staff, actors and audience as we face the COVID-19 crisis. To that end, we are only selling 50% of available seats in the theatre. Seating is general admission, and we ask you to leave at least one empty seat between you and other parties. Masks are optional for fully-vaccinated patrons, and non-vaccinated individuals are requested to please wear a mask while in the building. Advanced tickets are strongly recommended as walk-in sales will not be available once we have reached capacity.
