It's as if we are not allowed to. Some give up and say, \"alright then, if you won't give, I will bloody well take.\" And you know what, Shona? I don't blame them. Shona and her class are studying the Charles Dickens classic, Oliver Twist. She's the new girl in school and is finding it hard to stay out of trouble – much like Oliver himself! When she's given a new phone by a stranger, she begins to suspect there's something unusual about the new boys she's met. Unexpected Twist is a retelling of Oliver Twist by one of the best-loved figures in the children's book world, Michael Rosen. This thrilling story was brought to vivid life by The Children's Theatre Partnership, and Royal \u0026amp; Derngate, Northampton, whose co-productions have included Holes and The Jungle Book. Directed by James Dacre (2020 Olivier Award nominated Our Lady of Kibeho), Rosen's novel was adapted for the stage by BAFTA award-winning playwright Roy Williams (Death of England, Sucker Punch) with original music by rising R\u0026amp;B star Yaya Bey and BAC Beatbox Academys Conrad Murray. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere and UK tour, in April 2023.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350414488\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Rosen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44188672164090,"sku":"9781350414488","price":10.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_0ab01b98-0482-4f7a-84d0-52687ede83f9.jpg?v=1682262213","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/unexpected-twist-9781350414488","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
