Based on the beloved comic strip by Harold Gray, Annie features music by Charles Strouse, lyrics by Martin Charnin, and a book by Thomas Meehan. The musical tells the story of a yo ung orphan in Depression-era New York whose endless optimism leads her from the grim orphanage run by Miss Hannigan to the mansion of billionaire Oliver Warbucks. Along the way, she inspires everyone around her with her unwavering belief that “the sun’ll come out tomorrow.” The original 1977 Broadway production was a major success and won seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Annie helped to launch many notable careers, including actress Sarah Jessica Parker and animal trainer William Berloni. With songs like “It’s the Hard Knock Life,” “Tomorrow,” and “You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile,” Annie remains an audience favorite and a cornerstone of American musical theatre. Show more
