The history of "Oliver Twist" as a
play is fascinating. for with it there
are connected some of the greatest
names in theatrical annals. The story
was originally published during 1887
and 1888 in Bentley's Magazine, Of
which Dickens was Tor some time the
editor. 1t was dramatized almost i'm
mediately, and we find the name of
the great Charlotte Cushman men
toned as starring in the play in 1889.

Mitchell played Oliver, and Fannie
Wallack appeared with her as Nancy.
Others who have appeared in the play
