Abstract
This paper is focusing on the Scenography for Lionel Bart’s musical “Oliver!”. It mainly includes the Scenic Design, Costume Design and Lighting Design. I chose this musical for my thesis because I believe it is timeless, energetic and international. The story of Oliver Twist is well known to audience from all over the world. The Victorian London is a mirror to all the developing Capitals. As an International student from China, I think this play is also interesting enough to bring Chinese audience, like my parents, into theatres. Just like a quote from Charles Dickens: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” My design concept is to create a theatrical world of great contrast.
