wow! this is amazing! thanks for posting this! wow i love this show and i havent enjoyed ever watching any other shows online but this is GREAT! and i LOVE the set!!
When I think about it Bette being as young as she is even if she isn't Nancy's sister bc although Nancy wouldn't necessarily have a BEST friend being that much younger than her Bette is kinda representing the little girl that looks up to Nancy...she could also be the only girl who lives there so OF COURSE she sticks with Nancy bc who really wants to hang out with a bunch of boys?
my god that is a young bet! i never thought of a much younger sister to nancy! i quite like that take on that character actually ! the next time i choreograph this show i am goin to push for a younger actress to play bet! i lthink it would look different to the same old "normal" bet that always seems to try and compete with the nancy! love love loved nancy in this version!
OH perhaps bet isnt nancys sister! i might be wrong there actually sorri! i think i thought she was perhaps because she is much younger here! i couldnt see nancy hangin round a much younger friend though! if u know wot i mean!
In the show, Bet is Nancy's younger sister. Nancy is supposed to be early twenties in the show, and Bet should be early/mid teens. In the 1968 Film version of "Oliver!", Bet was portrayed as Nancy's best friend. She is the same age as Nancy in the film. Hope this helps!
Wow! thank you so much for posting this! Sally Dexter is so amazing! i have always been a huge oliver fan and listen to this soundtrack frequently. This whole cast is so colorful and talented and brings a wonderful mood to this musical!b THANK YOU
Great quality. Sally Dexter was BY FAR the best part of that show. I lived in London and saw it many times. The CD does not do her justice at all. "As Long as He Needs Me" BLEW THE ROOF OFF the Palladium every time.
Thank you so much! This was my first good show that I saw. Do you know how long Sally Dexter (Nancy) stayed with the production? Thanks. Sally is amazing!
@jewisboy29 Hiya. Sally stayed with the show for a bout a year and a half I'd say something like that. The show opened in Dec 1994, and I know Ruthie Henshall played Nancy at some stage in 1996... so you do the math! :)
Info is very limited on this particular revival so we don't know for sure who played what when etc... This production closed in 1998. hope this helps.
@jewisboy29 Sally stayed with the show for about a year and a half, and was replaced by Ruthie Henshall, who was then replaced by Claire Moore and finally by Sonia Swaby, who closed the show. Dexter received an Olivier Award nomination for her performance. Hope this helps

Is Bet supposed to be nacy's sister?

Yea, that actually makes more sense because of the age difference
