Theatre Harrisburg is holding open auditions for ANNIE, in performance November 5 through 22, 2009. All performances will be at The Whitaker Center's Sunoco Performance Theater.

Leapin' lizards! The popular comic strip heroine takes center stage in one of the world's best-loved musicals. Book by Thomas Meehan, music by Charles Strouse, lyrics by Martin Charnin. The country was in a Depression, but for one little girl there was always hope...Tomorrow.

Based on the popular comic strip, this hit musical comedy follows the adventures of 11 year old Annie who temporarily escapes from the orphanage presided over by the cruel Miss Hannigan. After befriending a stray dog (Sandy), she is eventually selected to spend Christmas at the palatial home of millionaire Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks. In time, Warbucks decides he would like to adopt her himself, but not before a nationwide search for the little girl's parents and a wacky get-rich-quick scheme by Miss Hannigan and her brother Rooster. With its delightful score and happy ending, this is the perfect "feel good" show for family members of all ages--and just in time for the holidays!

An accompanist will be provided and sheet music is encouraged, but not mandatory. Audition pieces should be well rehearsed. Singers may be asked to vocalize with the piano. Children are encouraged NOT to audition with a song from Annie. Please be ready to learn a small movement pattern. For more information, please contact 717-232-5501 or www.theatreharrisburg.com.
