[title]Whether she’s singing about how the sun will come out tomorrow or escaping the clutches of the cruel Miss Hannigan’s orphanage, it’s impossible not to love Annie. The vibrant little girl and her furry friend are now in Melbourne for Annie the Musical and tickets are selling fast.
Step out of the Melbourne chill and into the warmth of legendary Broadway musical Annie playing at the Princess Theatre. The strictly limited run follows the story of a very cute curly-haired orphan adopted by the rich Oliver ‘Daddy’ Warbucks. Annie goes to live in his New York City mansion over Christmas, and while he should be the one changing her life, she ends up having quite the resounding impact on the billionaire.
Set in 1930s New York during the Great Depression, Annie first took Broadway by storm in 1977 — winning seven Tony Awards, spawning countless revivals, and becoming one of the most famed musicals of all time.
Delight in classic tunes backed by a 17-piece live orchestra like ‘It’s the Hard-Knock Life’ and ‘Tomorrow’ on a night out that’s sure to give you the warm and fuzzies. It’s a theatrical classic that’s got just the right mix of heart, grit, and feel-good nostalgia — plus a scene-stealing dog called Sandy.
Musical theatre legend Anthony Warlow stars as Oliver Warbucks, Debora Krizak is Miss Hanigan, Greg Page (yes, the original yellow Wiggle) as President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the role of Annie is shared by Dakota Chanel, Isabella Hayden and Lilleth McIntosh.
Annie the Musical is now playing for a strictly limited season until November 8 at the Princess Theatre. Tickets start from $70 and you can get yours here.
