Actors who have portrayed Annie and her orphan friends over the years will reunite for a live, online Q&A to benefit The Actors Fund.

Broadway's Maya Jade Frank alongside her sister Alessandra Tehya Frank have partnered with Laura Luc's KOTA Productions, Janine Molinari's Dance Molinari, Joshua Turchin of The Early Night Show, Photographer Amanda Delgadillo, and Director of Videography Lexi Underwood, to present campaign Make Invisible Visible. Everyone lives with something or knows someone going through something that is not always seen.

A new production of the Tony Award-winning musical, Annie opened on this day in 2012 at the Palace Theatre!

Inland Valley Repertory Theater company (IVRT) is pleased to announce the casting of Cassandra Marie Murphy as Francesca in the Southern California Premier of Jason Robert Brown's Musical THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY for a very limited run on Tuesday and Wednesday, September 25 and 26 at the Candlelight Pavilion in Claremont.

It's the 74th Kritzerland show and the annual all young performers show - one of the yearly favorites to do. Those who've been to the shows know that one of the things that makes them unique (until everyone else started doing it) is the use of young performers in shows. Kritzerland likes to nurture and be supportive of tomorrow's future musical theater performers, in fact, they feel it is their duty to do so. So, this is the performers' night to shine. But if you think you're going to hear a bunch of kid songs, you won't be. The night is a challenge to the young folks and there will be no pandering to their age - they are given wonderful musical theatre material from the classics to the new, featuring songs from shows they may one day get to do - so, you'll be hearing amazing songs from such classics as Funny Girl, The Music Man, Bells Are Ringing, A Little Night Music, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, as well as less well known musicals like Minnie's Boys, Andrew Lloyd Webber's Song and Dance, Baby, right up to the Broadway smash, Waitress. Being a Kritzerland show, there will also be a few surprises. So join this incredible cast of young folks and catch these young people before they're on Broadway. Kritzerland is produced and hosted by Bruce Kimmel and co-produced by Doug Haverty.
