“Annie” tells the extraordinary story of a little orphan who ends up in the lap of luxury with Depression-era billionaire Oliver Warbucks. Unlike most of the other children at Miss Hannigan’s orphanage, spunky Annie believes that her parents are still alive and will one day return to claim her. So when Mr. Warbucks offers to adopt her, she asks the most powerful man in America to help find her real mom and dad instead, and he agrees. Warbucks’ whopping reward for Annie’s parents attracts the attention of con artists Rooster, Lily and the wicked Miss Hannigan, who hatch a plot to kidnap Annie and take the $50,000 reward. But don’t fret: This classic family musical has a happy ending for Annie, Daddy Warbucks and the whole gang.

Join us for a presentation of Annie Jr., performed by the talented students of Creative Arts, on Friday, August 21st @ 6pm or Saturday, August 22nd @ 5pm. What they can put together in two weeks is just amazing - from memorizing lines, building props & costumes, and pulling it all together for two productions!

Directed by: Kelly Walsh
Art Director: Brittany Daley
