UNEXPECTED TWIST
AN OLIVER TWISTED TALE
From the book by Michael Rosen

Unexpected 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. 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 fishy about the new boys she’s met.

Unexpected Twist is brought to you by the Children’s Theatre Partnership, whose recent successes include Holes, The Jungle Book, Running Wild, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, and Goodnight Mister Tom.
