Many people are found poor and starving in 1850’s London. Orphans are mistreated in a large workhouses as they work for little food and no money. One cheeky lad, Oliver, begs for more gruel in "Food, Glorious Food."
Instead of honoring his request, Mr. Bumble and Widow Corney become angry and put him up for sale! Sold to Mr. Sowerberry, the undertaker, Oliver is treated even worse than at the orphanage. Soon, Oliver runs away and is befriended by the Artful Dodger who encourages him to "Consider Yourself" a friend in a band of ruffians, lead by an unsavory Fagin, who teaches them "To Pick a Pocket or Two." During his trial run, Oliver is caught and arrested, but the kind-hearted Mr. Brownlow feels for the poor boy and takes him home. Finally, Oliver finds happiness and a home as he discovers "Where is Love."
