Broadway Production (1963)
Michael Goodman is heard as The Artful Dodger on the cast recording of this production, which was recorded early during the long pre-Broadway tour. By the time the production reached Broadway, David (aka Davy) Jones was playing the role. Both Goodman and Jones had been replacements in the role in London.
Bruce Prochnik, playing the title role, was another London replacement who came to Broadway in the role he had played in London. Prior to playing the role on Broadway, Prochnik had played Oliver in a 13-part British television dramatization of the Dickens novel. In that television production, Willoughby Goddard played Mr. Bumble, the same character he would play in the Broadway production of the musical. Goddard seems not to have appeared in the London production of the musical.
