2018 is a special year as it marks the 50th anniversary of the 1968 musical film adaptation of Oliver! and Exeter Musical Society (EMS) are delighted to be once again performing this wonderful story.

Let EMS take you on a musical adventure as you journey through Victorian England joining orphaned boy, Oliver Twist as he escapes the workhouse and travels through the underworld of London, meeting thieves and vagabonds on the way.

From the company that bought you Sister Act and Legally Blonde, Oliver! features fantastic sets, wonderful costumes and favourite songs including Consider Yourself, Oom Pah Pah and Who Will Buy.
