Every year the music department puts on a musical in the spring, and this year the musical is Oliver.
Oliver is based on the novel Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. Oliver is an orphan boy who gets sold to an undertaker, then runs away to London. He is found by a ragamuffin pick-pocket gang member (the Artful Dodger) who then takes him back to the gang leader, Fagin. The story unfolds with Oliver’s adventures as he struggles to find his way in life. Bill Sykes, a ruthless member of Fagin’s gang, uses Oliver to help him rob a house and the drama unfolds from there.

This musical has a special place in my heart–what a great story line! When I was in college, an organization I was in rewrote the lyrics to three of the songs for our homecoming skit. We took first place! Congrats to the entire cast, crew, and support staff on a job well done this spring at AHS!
