Oliver Jr., The Musical
Wild Horse Children's Theater presents Oliver Jr., The Musical at the BAC in Carson City.
Oliver Jr. is widely hailed as a true theatrical masterpiece by actors and audience members alike and is a perfect show to lead into your holiday season! 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 manipulative Fagin. When Oliver is captured for a theft that he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mrs. 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.
