Oliver!
RJJT brings to life, “Oliver!”, the story of a child who dares to trust in others, search for love, and ask for more in London’s seedy underworld. Consider yourself at home with Lionel Bart's classic musical based on the Charles Dickens novel, Oliver Twist. 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.
Chicago - Teen Edition
Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and dancer who becomes a malicious murderer, who in desperation to avoid conviction, dupes the public, media and her rival cellmate, by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer who transforms her crime into a barrage of sensational headlines. The longest-running American musical in Broadway history, Chicago is a universal tale of fame, fortune, and all that jazz, with one showstopping song after another!
