O L I V E R!
At Academy of Performing Arts
6
Summary:
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.
Reviews for O L I V E R!
Folks at the Academy of Performing Arts regularly tackle these big musicals in their small theater and the community is the better for their efforts. Choreographer Missy Potash and orphans choreographer Sydney Peterson deserve credit for moving 50 people around the stage, not to mention having the orphans kicking legs (and not each other!) in a chorus line.
The wildly talented Denise Page, who plays Nancy, delivers the jawdropping solo performance of “As Long as He Needs Me” and believe me, it will leave you with chills.
