Olive Copperbottom: A Dickensian Tale of Love, Gin & the Pox

After the dainty successes of Promise and Promiscuity, Penny Ashton has decided that, much like Oliver Twist, Waiheke might like ‘some more.’ So, here she comes with Dickensian-inspired orphaned hero Olive Copperbottom, and a squalid gaggle of hilarious Victorians, who she will bring to crusty life.

A rollicking, romantic, musical journey through 15 gin-soaked characters told with song, dance, and questionable personal hygiene. It’s Oliver! meets Blackadder with a saucy feminine twist. More info at www.hotpink.co.nz
