The role of Fagin will be played by Donald Corren who returns to Goodspeed having previously Oliver Twist is played by adorable Elijah Rayman. Will he find love, home, and happiness before it’s too late? Consider yourself part of the family with the colorful international smash that gave the world “Where Is Love?,” “Food! Glorious Food!” and “As Long As He Needs Me.” Oliver! is made possible in part by Liberty Bank, the Lucille Lortel Foundation, Masonicare at Chester Village and The Shops at Mohegan Sun. Bounced from workhouse to forced labor, Oliver Twist escapes to the streets where he meets Fagin, the Artful Dodger and a band of child pickpockets.
This is the first time this classic musical is being presented by Goodspeed. This beloved classic will run through September 8. We always give ourselves plenty of time for a nice leisurely dinner at the Gelston House which is right next door to the theatre. I have NEVER seen anything there that I did not love. Full disclosure: The Goodspeed Opera House happens to be one of my favorite theatres.
However, once we are there, we are transported to the most wonderful experiences. There seems to always be traffic issues and construction. This time, the trip was for Lionel Bart's Oliver! It's always a trip we dread.Let me explain. Last evening, in a driving rain, we once again made the two-hour drive to the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, Connecticut.
