Get TWISTED at The Factory Theatre
January 31, 2015 @ 8:00 pm - February 22, 2015 @ 8:00 pm
$23TWISTED is a modern-day reimagining of the Dickens classic, Oliver Twist, set in the heart of Toronto’s urban centre. In this retelling, Ollie, an orphaned black youth, and bottom girl Nancy are trying to survive the gritty streets of Toronto. Ollie has been in and out of foster homes and Nancy suffers from a loveless childhood, but they find love in each other, at least through their cell phones. Through their intimate and poetic text messages, they forge a powerful real-time connection – and plan a dangerous escape for a better life. Together. With beats by Hagler.
Written by Charlotte Corbeil-Coleman and Joseph Jomo Pierre
On Stage at Factory, January 31 to February 22, 2015
