RIP... He was my inspiration when I played the AD

His co-actor, Mark Lester (played Oliver) is my osteopath. He seemed so sad on Friday, which is when I found out and read the obituary.

Sad. Very Sad.

Oliver was the first musical i fell in love with and Jack Wild's Artful Dodger was one of the main reasons for this. I more upset than i thought i would be when i first heard the news.

Rest In Peace Jack Wild
