Oliver! is a British musical, with music and lyrics by Lionel Bart. It was made into a film directed by Carol Reed. It first appeared in the West End in 1960, and enjoyed a long run that launched the careers of several child actors, including Davy Jones, later of The Monkees, Phil Collins, later of Genesis, and Tony Robinson, later playing the role of Baldrick in the television series Black Adder. The rock star Steve Marriott (The Small Faces, Humble Pie) also featured in early line-ups, eventually graduating to the role of Dodger in the West End. The musical is loosely based upon Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. That it was the first musical adaptation of a Dickens novel to become a stage hit was one of the reasons why it attracted such attention.
