Fagin's last hour
Presented by Brother Wolf
Based on the novel 'Oliver Twist' by Charles Dickens
Adapted and performed by James Hyland
Directed by Phil Lowe
Music by Chris Warner
'Oliver Twist', Charles Dickens' dark tale of crime and punishment, is stunningly re-imagined in this award-winning stage adaptation, recognised by The Queen for its part in Dickensian scholarship. Told from the point of view of Fagin the Miser, one hour before his execution, this unique and powerful one-man show offers a fresh insight into literature's most controversial villain.
