Twist: a new rock musical by Gila Sand, based on "Oliver Twist," casts a spell of luscious drag, scintillating S & M, twisted humor, delicious candy and other addictive treats. In this fantasy of Victorian England, Dickens' orphan has grown into an attractive young man with a taste for trouble,
punished at the Workhouse, picked up on the street by
a wolfish Artful Dodger, and brought home to a decidedly different Fagin than ever seen before.
With music by Paul Leschen, Scissor Sisters songwriter
and musician, and featuring Brian Charles Rooney
('Lucy Brown' in the 2006 Broadway revival of "The
Threepenny Opera") as the 'Artful Dodger.'
First shown at the Philadelphia Fringe, where critics
wrote:
"The classics are not created for naught. Oliver Twist
was made to be reinvented as this kinky production!"
- City Paper
"The cast was composed of actors with strong voices,
the script was funny, and the band was good ...I can
see it becoming a local cult fave." - Jillian Blair
