The 1963 Broadway hit Oliver! has been revived just once on Broadway, in a short-lived 1984 production starring Ron Moody as Fagin and Patti LuPone as Nancy.
Cameron Mackintosh produced the revival, staged by the show’s original director—Peter Coe—that opened April 29, 1984, at the Mark Hellinger Theatre, where it shuttered two weeks later on May 13.
Next year, Carnegie Hall's house band will perform Bernstein’s “Kaddish” Symphony, unfinished works by Schubert, and the final concert of Conductor Bernard Labadie.
