Home About Us Past Shows Youth Contact Us Guestbook BLOG ANNIE July 2009 It is the 1930's and Annie, a fiery 11 year old orphan, has been raised and mistreated by the mean orphanage director, Miss Hannigan. Annie decides to escape to find her parents and on the way she meets a friendly dog who she names Sandy. Annie is caught and returned to the orphanage but her luck is about to change. Billionaire Oliver Warbucks decides to invite an orphan over to his house for the holidays and Annie is chosen. Quickly, she charms the hearts of the household staff and even the seemingly cold-hearted Warbucks who decides to help Annie find her parents by putting up a $50,000 reward. Miss Hannigan's brother, Rooster, and his girlfriend, Lily, pretend to be Annie's parents by using information provided by Miss Hannigan. At the last minute, President Roosevelt intervenes to announce that the FBI has discovered that Annie's parents are dead. Miss Hannigan, Rooster, and Lily are all arrested and Annie is adopted by Warbucks. A brilliant, heartwarming show, with a happy ending, and brilliant performances, especially from the young orphans played by the PUKKA Plus group.
