This year it's under the guidance of experienced directors Noel Grimes and Kirsten Parkes.
Mr Grimes said audiences would be taken to 1850s London on a journey of love, sacrifice and hardship and "song, dance, comedy and drama and poignancy".
"The Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist was adapted to stage by Lionel Bart and it became an instant hit," Mr Grimes said.
"Oliver has great musical numbers including Where Is Love, Consider Yourself, As long As Needs Me and rollicking Oom- Pah - Pah."
Oliver will be presented at the Civic Centre. Two shows only so book early.
Dinner show: Saturday June 13 6pm, catering by St Mary's P and F.
Matinee: Sunday June 14 - 2pm.
Booking open at Wellington Business Services on Thursday from 9.30pm.
