Quite a lot of attention has been given to film and television versions of the novels, many of which are very distinguished. The stage and screen musical based on his work, essentially a product of the last fifty years, has been neither as studied nor as respected. This paper looks at the con- nection between Dickens’s novels, the celebration of “London-ness” and its articulation in popular forms of working-class music and song.

    Oliver! (1968) AUDIENCE 82 liked it Average Rating: 3.4/5 User Ratings: 55,441 Movie Info Inspired by Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist, Lionel Bart's 1961 London and Broadway musical hit glossed over some of Dickens' more graphic passages but managed to retain a strong subtext to what was essentially light entertainment. For its first half-hour or so, Carol Reed's Oscar-winning 1968 film version does a masterful job of telling its story almost exclusively through song and dance. Once nine- year-old orphan Oliver Twist (Mark Lester) falls in with such underworld types as pickpocket Fagin (Ron Moody) and murderous thief Bill Sykes (Oliver Reed), it becomes necessary to inject more and more dialogue, and the film loses some of its momentum. But not to worry; despite such brutal moments as Sikes' murder of Nancy (Shani Wallis), the film gets back on the right musical track, thanks in great part to Theatrical release poster by Howard Terpning (Wikipedia) Onna White's exuberant choreography and the faultless performances by Moody and by Jack Wild as the Artful Dodger. The supporting cast TOMATOMETER includes Harry Secombe as the self-righteous All Critics Mr. Bumble and Joseph O'Conor as Mr. Brownlow, the man who (through a series of typically Dickensian coincidences) rescues Oliver from the streets.

  • “Reviewing the Situation”: Oliver! and the Musical Afterlife of Dickens's
    “Reviewing the Situation”: Oliver! and the Musical Afterlife of Dickens’s Novels Marc Napolitano A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by Advisor: Allan Life Reader: Laurie Langbauer Reader: Tom Reinert Reader: Beverly Taylor Reader: Tim Carter © 2009 Marc Napolitano ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Marc Napolitano: “Reviewing the Situation”: Oliver! and the Musical Afterlife of Dickens’s Novels (Under the direction of Allan Life) This project presents an analysis of various musical adaptations of the works of Charles Dickens. Transforming novels into musicals usually entails significant complications due to the divergent narrative techniques employed by novelists and composers or librettists. In spite of these difficulties, Dickens’s novels have continually been utilized as sources for stage and film musicals. This dissertation initially explores the elements of the author’s novels which render his works more suitable sources for musicalization than the texts of virtually any other canonical novelist. Subsequently, the project examines some of the larger and more complex issues associated with the adaptation of Dickens’s works into musicals, specifically, the question of preserving the overt Englishness of one of the most conspicuously British authors in literary history while simultaneously incorporating him into a genre that is closely connected with the techniques, talents, and tendencies of the American stage. A comprehensive overview of Lionel Bart’s Oliver! (1960), the most influential Dickensian musical of all time, serves to introduce the predominant theoretical concerns regarding the modification of Dickens’s texts for the musical stage and screen.

  • Oliver Song Lyrics
    Oliver: Twisted – Lyric Sheets Food, Glorious Food Is it worth the waiting for, if we get to eighty-four? All we ever get is gru-el! Every day we say a prayer, will they change the bill of fare? Still we get the same old gru-el! There’s not a crust, not a crumb can we find Can we beg can we borrow or cadge But there’s nothing to stop us from getting a thrill When we all close our eyes and imagine… Verse 1 Food, glorious food! Hot sausage and mustard While we’re in the mood, cold jelly and custard Pease pudding and saveloys, what next is the question? Rich gentlemen have it Boys – in-di-gestion! Food glorious food! We’re anxious to try it Three Banquets a day, our favourite diet Just picture a great Big steak, fried, roasted or stewed Oh food, wonderful food, marvellous food Glorious food! Verse 2 Food, glorious food! What is there more handsome? Gulped, swallowed or chewed, still worth a King’s ransom What is it we dream about, what Brings on a sigh? Piled peaches and cream about six feet high! Food, glorious food! Eat right through the menu Just loosen your belt two inches, and then you Work up a new appetite in this interlude, then Food, once again, food, fabulous food Glorious food! Repeat Verse 2, with the added ‘coda’ Food Glorious food!...(continue as above until)… Work up a new appetite in this interlude, then Food! Magical food Wonderful food Marvellous food Fabulous food Beautiful food GLO-RI-OUS FOOD!

  • Wake-Up Music; and It Is the Reason That NASA Management Has Neither Attempted to Dictate Its Content Nor Allowed Outside Interests to Influence the Process
    CHRONOLOGY OF WAKEUP CALLS Compiled by Colin Fries, NASA History Division Updated 3/13/2015 The idea for the Wakeup Call chronology arose as a result of my dual interests in the history of music and the space program. I discovered as soon as I began working as an archivist at the NASA History Office that there was no complete list of these calls sent from Mission Control. There have always been inquiries about flown items and mission events as we all know, and those about wakeup calls and music played in space encompassed a steady stream (no pun intended)! And NASA’s Web pages did provide audio for these calls beginning with STS-85 with the note that: “Wakeup calls are a longstanding tradition of the NASA program” -- yet nothing on when it started. One of the most frequent inquiries was and still is – What was the first wakeup call? (I later learned that it was “Hello Dolly” sent during Gemini 6). So with the blessing of the history staff I began compiling a chronology using the sources in the NASA Historical Reference Collection here at NASA Headquarters. The Space Shuttle portion of the Chronology proved to be the most challenging since the Johnson Space Center Audio Control Room Recorder Log began with STS-80. In 2005, I was able to visit JSC Public Affairs and make copies from their query books to fill in the gap. Still there were Space Shuttle wakeup calls, even entire missions, that remained elusive. The other sources that I used are listed at the end of this PDF.
