College production 

Annie JR. production cast announced

It was with much anticipation and excitement that our college production cast for Annie JR. was recently announced after an enthusiastic and impressive round of auditions. The students are eager about rehearsals and looking forward to taking the stage later in the year, under the guidance of talented production director and Learning Mentor Sean O'Brien.

Based on the popular comic strip and adapted from the Tony Award-winning Best Musical, with a beloved book and score by Tony Award winners Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin, Annie JR. features everyone’s favourite little redhead in her very first adventure. With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone's hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. Annie is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan. Annie eventually foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, finding a new home and family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.
