The Hopkinton Middle School Drama Club will present the musical “Oliver!” on April, 27, 28 and 29 in the Hopkinton Middle School auditorium, 88 Hayden Rowe Street, Hopkinton.
Based on the Charles Dickens classic “Oliver Twist,” the musical depicts the adventures of the orphaned Oliver -- including his hardships in the workhouse, his adventures with a band of youthful pickpockets led by Fagin, and his change of fortune when a long-lost relative finds him. “Oliver!,” which first hit the stage in 1960 in London, includes many well-loved songs, among them “Food, Glorious Food,” “Consider Yourself,” “As Long as He Needs Me,” and “I’d Do Anything.”
Showtimes are at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 27 and Saturday, April 28 and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, April 29. Advance tickets will be available soon at the Middle School office, or at the door.
