About us

A tale you think you know unravels and explodes.

Fagin's Twist is the untold story of a notorious and complex villain. It imagines Fagin's youth, driven by greed and ambition in the face of overwhelming poverty. The streets are a place of little comfort and fairy-tale endings are hard to find in this piece of poignant coming-of-age dance theatre

See Dickens' Oliver Twist in a new light as Tony Adigun's Avant Garde Dance Company flips your expectations of five familiar characters, with their unmatched contemporary hip hop style.

Fagin's Twist is commissioned by Theatre Bristol, East London Dance, Pavilion Dance South West, Dance East and The Place, and co-produced by The Place. Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. Tony Adigun is a Work Place artist.

If you require disabled/accessible seating, please call us on 01752 267131 to discuss your requirements
