Annie The Musical

Set in New York during the early 1930s, unemployment is high, ‘Prohibition’ is in, and America is plunged into the Great Depression. Annie is a 10 year old girl at the Hudson St Orphanage, run by Miss Hannigan - a horrible gin-soaked child-hating drunk. The girls' lives are made hard, by Miss Hannigan, who sees herself stuck in a miserable job that she hates.

One day Annie decides to run away, and during her short time outside, Annie befriends a dog who she calls Sandy. Annie is then picked up by a policeman and taken back to the orphanage.

Outside the orphanage, the arrival of Grace Farrell, who is the private secretary to Oliver Warbucks, tells Miss Hannigan that she is there to choose an orphan to spend Christmas at his mansion. Annie makes sure Grace chooses her to spend the week at Warbucks' home.
