Three years after starring in the Encores! production of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Megan Hilty returns to City Center as Annie Oakley in this concert staging of Irving Berlin's classic 1946 musical on October 27 and 28. Hilty will be joined by a Tony-honored cast including Andy Karl, Chuck Cooper, Marshall Factora, Judy Kaye, Brad Oscar, and Ron Raines. Check out a first look inside rehearsal below!

Annie Get Your Gun is loosely based on the true story of legendary sharpshooter Annie Oakley (Hilty) and her tempestuous romance with gunslinger Frank Butler (Karl). The musical features countless standards, including "You Can't Get a Man With a Gun," "There's No Business Like Show Business," "I Got Lost in His Arms," and "Anything You Can Do." The original production, starring Ethel Merman, opened at the Imperial Theatre on May 16, 1946 and proved to be Berlin's longest-running Broadway show, playing 1147 performances.

Tickets can be purchased at the New York City Center Box Office (West 55th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues), through CityTix® at 212-581-1212, and online at NYCityCenter.org. Further information is available at NYCityCenter.org. For tickets to the Gala performance on Oct 27, which includes pre-performance cocktails and a post-performance dinner at The Plaza Hotel, please call212.763.1205.
