BWW Review: YOUTH ON STAGE: ANNIE the musical at Culture House Martinus
by Rosanna Liuski - Jan 13, 2020

All in all Annie is fairly good musical full of surprises, not to mention its humane approach to life: Magical things can happen to us, but if the little details you've longed for so long don't match, it's more than okay to feel sad, though it might feel wrong in the first hand. In the end, tomorrow's only a day away anyways. I love you, tomorrow... And I love you, Vaskivuori!
