==Plot==
Act I
New York City, 1988. Several kittens are given away to new owners, except for a small ginger one, Oliver, who gets lost in a rainstorm. ("Once Upon a Time in New York City"). The next morning, he tries to get fed, to no avail, until he meets Dodger, a streetwise Jack Russell, who teaches him to steal hot dogs, before abandoning him ("Why Should I Worry?"). Oliver follows Dodger back to the houseboat, where he lives with his gang; sultry Afghan hound Rita, cultured Bulldog Francis, dimwitted Great Dane Einstein and hot-blooded Chihuahua Tito. ("Welcome to the Company"). The gang's owner, a homeless man called Fagin, owes money to a sinister loan shark called Sykes, who arrives that night with his vicious Dobermans, Roscoe and DeSoto, who discover Oliver and threaten him before the gang defend the kitten. After the Dobermans leave, a despairing Fagin wonders how he will be able to bring Sykes the money within three days. Comforted by the dogs and Oliver, the gang settle down for the night.
The next day, on Fifth Avenue, young rich girl Jenny Foxworth receives a letter from her wealthy parents about them missing her birthday, which she vents to her butler Winston. ("Nothing in the World"). Meanwhile, the gang teach Dodger how to survive in New York City. ("Streets of Gold".) The gang stumble upon Jenny walking through Chelsea Market with Winston, and an attempt to rob them goes awry, when Tito is knocked into a fruit stall. Jenny finds Oliver and takes him back to her house, while Tito tries to keep Oliver's disappearance a secret from the gang. ("Don't Ask, Don't Tell"). 
Later that night, at Sykes's dockside warehouse, the loan shark laments on his history with Fagin and how he must get his money that he is owed. ("Too Many Chances").
