Everyone's favorite orphan charms her way into your heart in this well-loved musical! During the Great Depression, the plucky girl escapes the clutches of the vile Miss Hannigan to find a home with zillionaire Daddy Warbucks, inspiring audiences of all ages that no matter how bleak today may be, the sun will come up "Tomorrow." Winner of 7 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Annie features music by Charles Strouse, lyrics by Martin Charnin, and a book by Thomas Meehan.
