  • NEVER BEFORE HAS A SHOW GIVEN MORE!
    Now in its 2nd record-breaking year, Oliver! is one of the most beloved British musicals, vividly bringing to life Dickens' timeless characters with its ever-popular story of the boy who asked for more.
    Russ Abbot, one of the most popular entertainers in Britain stars as Fagin alongside Kerry Ellis as Nancy and Steven Hartley as Bill Sikes. Russ is no stranger to Oliver! having played the role of Fagin at the Palladium Theatre Royal and on tour!
    With a cast and orchestra of over 100, the sensational score is full of Lionel Bart's irresistible songs including Food Glorious Food, Consider Yourself, You've Got to Pick-a-Pocket or Two, I'd Do Anything, Oom Pah Pah, As Long As He Needs Me and many more.
    Rupert Goold (Best Director, 2008 Olivier Awards), has restaged Sam Mendes' acclaimed production, and along with Tony award winning director and choreographer Matthew Bourne, uses every inch of London's greatest musical stage with even more sensational sets by Anthony Ward.

      +legit934 Too many child actors, child labor laws are insane, making the show impractical to mount on Broadway these days - unfortunately. Cameron Mackintosh has tried...

    • @traditionalist94
      @traditionalist94 7 років тому +5

      Actually, I have read that the problem isn't child labour laws, which are quite lenient in the state of New York compared to the UK, but the fact that child actors on Broadway must be members of Actors' Equity and must therefore be paid a minimum wage of more than $ 1000 a week.
      Child actors in the West End are paid considerably less. In the production of Oliver! this video is from, if an article in a British newspaper is to be believed, Olivers and the Artful Dodgers were paid £ 60 for each show, the members of Fagin's gang and the other members of the team (playing in - for example - Who Will Buy) £ 35 for each show and the so-called coach kids, who only played in the workhouse scene, £ 17 for each show.
      Cameron Mackintosh wants to fill the stage in the workhouse scene with children and so he needs a lot of them. Each show at Drury Lane in London had 49 child actors (1 Oliver, 1 Artful Dodger, 10 members of Fagin's gang, 21 other members of the team and 16 coach kids).
      If you do some calculations, you will find out that child actors on Broadway would cost at least three times more than child actors in the West End. If the minimum wage on Broadway is actually $ 1500 a week, child actors in Oliver! would cost five times more...

      lincolnlobster But Matilda was a huge success on Broadway

    • @traditionalist94
      @traditionalist94 5 років тому +3

      +bradley
      I think it depends on what you mean by a "huge success." Matilda on Broadway wasn’t a flop, but it wasn’t very profitable either. It ran only for about three years. The costs were too high.
      There’s a reason why in the West End Matilda has run for about seven and a half years and will probably continue to run for some more time. It’s much cheaper to run a show with a huge number of child actors in the West End than on Broadway in spite of the fact that you must have at least three child actors for each child role: West End producers don’t have to pay child actors so much money.

    I took my ten year old Grandson to see this on 4th January. It was his Christmas present. The entire show and stage production was unbelievable. Yes, the tickets were expensive but worth every penny. "Best Christmas present I have ever had" retorted Sam." Mine also Sam". Wonderful. Breathtaking.

    saw this today for the first time, tickets are expensive but 100% worth it, the set was amazing and well detailed, it followed the film closley for people that have never read the book it even had a few extra songs which was good, i must say though kerry ellis in it today played an amzing nancy better than the lady in this video. and oh my gosh the kids that play the orphans and fagans gang are the cutest thumbs up to them!

    Great show, massive cast, Dodger was brilliant, Fagin was Russ Abbot and Nancy Kerry Ellis.
    Really good production and the scenery and set movement are genius.
    I would love to see behind the scenes of this one
    Its a must see.
