OLIVER! Comes To CCC Community Theater 7/17-25

By:

The CCC Community Theatre will present the Broadway musical Oliver! (Words and music by Lionel Bart) on Friday, July 17th at 7:30 pm, Saturday, July 18th at 3 pm,

Friday, July 24th at 7:30 pm and Saturday, July 25th at 3 pm.

Based on the thematic plot and characters of the Dickens novel Oliver Twist, published between 1837 and 1839, the socio-political themes of poverty and child abuse are unfortunately still relevant in 2009. The opening line of the main character, Oliver, "Please sir, I want some more", inspired the Broadway Kids theatre class to dedicate each performance to a local food pantry. The Center will be conducting a food drive before each performance. Donations will be given to a local food pantry that the cast and crew will decide upon.

The CCC Community Theatre is comprised of members from the Cultural Center community courses: Band, Chorus and Broadway Kids. The three community groups were formed in the fall of 2008 and they are free or for a minimal tuition. More 100 members of the combined groups will participate: produce publicity, sets, costumes, fund raising and performances. Ages range from 8 to 80.

The groups are under the directions of Mary Ann Scialdo and Vicki Cuccia - Broadway Kids & Chorus; Helen Michaelson - Band; and Betty Lee Rey and Teil Rey - Choreography.

Oliver! is the first production of the CCC Community Theatre.

Tickets are $10 for members, $15 for non-members and are available by calling 813-269-1310.

The Carrollwood Cultural Center is located 4537 Lowell Road Tampa FL 33613.

Featured Gallery Artists: Doreen Donovan (July 17 - August 3)

CCC Student and Faculty Art Show (Until July 30)
