Set in London in 1850, the curtain opens with Oliver Twist working at an orphanage. The boys sing "Food, lorious food" as they wait for supper. They are all hungry after their one cup of gruel and Oliver asks for more.
Mr. and Mrs. Bumble sing"Oliver!", and Oliver is a "Boy for sale" after being upset by his impudence. Oliver is bought by Mr. Sowerberry, the undertaker. Saved from one enemy in Mr. Bumble, Oliver's new enemy is Noah Claypole. A fight between them leads to Oliver being locked up as he sings the tender "Where is love". Oliver runs away where he soon meets the Artful Dodger who sings "Consider yourself ". He is introduced to Fagin and his boys and is taught that "You've got to pick a pocket or two".
Fagin sneaks out late in the evening to meet Bill Sikes at The Three Cripples. Despite the obvious drawbacks of living in the slum, Nancy assures us that "It's a fine life". The following morning Nancy and Bet arrives and Oliver gets to know them during the song "I'd do anything", after which Fagin sends the boys out on the streets hoping that they'll "Be back soon". Well, they aren't, at least not Oliver. He's been arrested for looking guilty when Dodger stole a wallet.
Attend to see what happens next and if Oliver ever finds a real family.
August Gallery Showing and Reception
August 1 we welcome hobby artists to the LAC gallery. We begin by honoring them with an open reception from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. and their works will be on display through August 26. This group of artists does outstanding work, yet they paint for their own pleasure an relaxation rather than for a profession.
The exhibit is part of our 25th Anniversary Celebration and we hope the community enjoys the talents of these friends and neighbors who you may not know as artists. The artists hope their work will inspire others to consider painting as a hobby. Artists exhibiting include Betty Brunson, Jack Laney, Lucy Lunsford, Liz McCormick, Paige Parnell, Grady Sue Saxon, Fran Shelton and Sherry Whisenhunt. Visit our "Gallery" tab for individual information.
