Unexpected Twist - A Oliver Twisted Tale archiveUnexpected Twist is the re-telling of the Charles Dickens classic, Oliver Twist, by one the best-loved figures in the children's book world, Michael Rosen. Combining two stories in one; Rosen's story and the Dickens classic that inspired it. Two stories that twist together, unexpectedly! Shona and her class are studying the book, Oliver Twist. She's the new girl in school and is finding it hard to stay out of trouble - much like Oliver himself! When she's given a new phone by a stranger, she begins to suspect there's something unusual about the new boys she's met.

Brilliant show. Should be produced or shown in every senior school in the u.k. One of best live shows I have seen and the messages are truly well presented. Superb cast.
