Photo Flash: ANNIE Shines At Broadway Palm
The blockbuster musical Annie hits the Broadway Palm stage this summer now through August 11, 2018. The heartwarming story about everyone's favorite orphan and her dog Sandy will capture the hearts of audience members of all ages!
Lizards! A spunky orphan, Annie, is determined to find her parents, but instead her fun-filled adventures lead her to billionaire Oliver Warbucks. As part of a publicity campaign for Mr. Warbucks, Annie and her dog Sandy are placed in the lap of luxury for a week. However, Annie's stay turns out to be much more than anyone had bargained for as she works her way into everyone's hearts! The only thing standing in Annie's way is an evil scheme cooked up by the cruel and bitter Miss Hannigan. This Tony-Award-winning Best Musical features some of the greatest musical theatre hits including It's the Hard Knock Life, I Don't Need Anything But You, Easy Street and Tomorrow.
Directing and choreographing Annie is Amy McCleary. McCleary's work was most recently seen with this season's hit Mamma Mia which became Broadway Palm's number one show of all time. The cast includes many Broadway Palm alumni including audience favorite Victor Legarreta as Oliver Warbucks. Making her Broadway Palm debut and starring as Annie is Pennsylvania resident Piper Sobon. In addition, sixteen local youngsters are double cast as Annie's eight orphan friends and the understudy for the role of Annie is local resident Ava Stoeberl.
