From staff reports
Annie, Jr. is playing for one weekend only at USCB Center for the Arts, running Friday, May 20 to Sunday, May 22. The production is based on the comic strip adapted from the Tony-Award-winning musical by Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse, and Martin Charnin.
“We have a talented and dedicated cast of young actors who love the stage and shine in their roles,” Assistant Director Naomi Forrestall said. “Our team has had a wonderful time working together and with these kids. We are excited for the community to enjoy the show in a few weeks.”
Annie, Jr. tells of a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find her parents who abandoned her on a New York City orphanage doorstep run by the cruel Miss Hannigan. In adventure after adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan’s evil ways, befriends President Franklin Roosevelt, and finds a new family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.
