all it a Dickens fall in Winnetka, with the productions of Oliver! and A Christmas Carol showcasing only two weeks apart at the Winnetka Community House. The Children’s Theatre of Winnetka is putting on Oliver! November 16 – 19, and Toby Nicholson’s original production of A Christmas Carol will be performed on December 2 - 3. “We thought it would be a good time to combine the two shows and make it a Dickens fall,” Toby Nicholson, director of A Christmas Carol and codirector of Oliver! told DailyNorthShore. Both productions tackle the issues of poverty and wealth, themes the directors believe are particularly relevant today. “You can see the same themes throughout both productions and I hope people notice,” said Cathy Hirschmann, co-director of Oliver!. Oliver! is a children’s production comprising about 90 actors in 4th through 8th grade. According to Nicholson, Dickens’s compelling characters were particularly challenging for the children to learn. Continued on PG 11
