"Annie is undoubtedly one of the finest American musicals,” states Co-Director Clifford Bresee. “Set during the Great Depression, it tells the story of a young girl who embodies hope, determination, and optimism in the face of hardship and loss. This musical also celebrates the beauty of non-traditional and chosen families. I trust that audiences of all ages will be drawn in by this charming story full of love and wisdom."

The winner of seven Tony® Awards, this show is one of the world’s best-loved musicals, about a mischievous and feisty orphan determined to find her parents.  Her luck changes when she is chosen to spend Christmas at the home of famous billionaire, Oliver Warbucks. This award-winning book and score includes the unforgettable songs ‘Hard Knock Life’, ‘Easy Street’, ‘I Don’t Need Anything But You’ and ‘Tomorrow’.
