Leapin' Lizards! The popular comic strip heroine takes center stage in one of the world's most beloved musicals. Annie is a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan, befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace, and a loveable mutt named Sandy. Featuring It's A Hard Knock Life, You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile, Easy Street, and of course, Tomorrow, there is no better way to end five years of quality theatre than with this award-winning show!

What the Audience is saying:

“What a professional production! I could not have asked for more. I saw a cast that was not only talented, but they were well rehearsed. They sang beautifully, but most importantly, had an understanding of the genre. The show flowed, was funny, and took itself seriously enough to work. It was great!!�?
