Casting Announced Dickens Uncovered 16

Dickens Uncovered Montage

Bringing two of Charles Dickens’s most popular stories out in the open as part of our 2017 season, Dickens Uncovered celebrates the greatest storyteller of London Life – and we are delighted to announce our cast for both productions, A Tale of Two Cities (7 July – 5 August) and Oliver Twist created for everyone aged six and over (17 July – 5 August).

“I am delighted that this group of 32 talented performers are coming together to reimagine these two iconic London stories. For those of us who read them alone at home, at school or on the tube, I hope we can reclaim them anew together in the Park. For those who only know them as titles, then let us take you on a trip back to the nineteenth century blockbusters, via 2017. This is Dickens uncovered for everyone.” (Artistic Director, Timothy Sheader)
