About Oliver Twist
Oliver Twist is TNT's most performed production. A roller coaster ride of tragedy and comedy, a grotesque exploration of Dickens' central theme of the relationship between poverty and crime. The powerful drama is set on the gallows as Fagin (as in the original) awaits execution. His life and fate is explored in flashback. Thomas Johnson's haunting and vibrant score is sung a capella by the cast.
