Oliver! "Reinvented"

Can't get tickets to Hamilton? Be a part of a Musical Theatre Movement right here in Connecticut!

OLIVER! “Reinvented” combines The New Paradigm Theatre’s professional Broadway, film, and television performers and directors with local nonprofits like Council of Churches of Greater Bridgeport (CCGB), K.E.Y.S., and City Lights. They collaborate to support a production, mentoring, community-involved happening!

Multi-ethnic, Multi-gendered and Multi-generational–we feature youth and local adults alongside our Broadway professionals!

But more importantly this “Oliver” production highlights the social justice issues of hunger, poverty, and violence in a very current and updated musical production. It will help to shine a spotlight on these social issues that the Bridgeport Council works with every day. Some proceeds to benefit this important nonprofit.
