“Annie”, produced by Growing Dreams Productions, Inc., is shaping up to be every bit as good as “Shrek the Musical” was last year! Starring over 60 local actors, singers and dancers from ages 8 to 18, Annie features some of the classic songs of American musical theater such as “The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow”, “It’s A Hard Knock Life”, and “NYC”.
Being on stage is only part of the picture. More of our area youth are helping to create and build the set, props, costumes, make-up and more backstage for this show, under the wings of director Jeannie Hunter, musical director Jon Brownell, choreographer Becky Lucas, and costumer Angie Aller.
Annie opens Friday, April 12, and runs for six shows, including two matinees. Evening shows on April 12, 13, 18 and 20, begin at 7 p.m. with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Matinees on April 13 and 20 begin at 2 p.m. with doors opening at 1:30 p.m. Popcorn and other snacks will be available at the performances, along with flowers for purchase for your favorite actor/actress.
