Photo Flash: Annie at Playhouse on the Square

Playhouse on the Square begins the holiday season with the family-friendly classic, Annie. "Annie" is a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks.

Annie is directed by Dave Landis and choreographed by Courtney Oliver. Sydney Bell (Oliver!) and Dani Chaum (Grey Gardens) will alternate in the title role. Company Members Carla McDonald and Irene Crist appear as "Miss Hannigan". Annie also features Associate Company Members Ben Laxton as "Rooster", Kyle Blair as "Daddy Warbucks", Kelsey Hopkins as "Lily St. Regis", and Sarah Hoch as "Grace". Fred Harpell will reprise the role of FDR (Annie at Harrell Theatre and DeSoto Family Theatre).
