"Annie" by The Footlight Players

The Footlight Players brings everyone’s favorite redhead to life in a production of “Annie,” the perfect family-friendly musical for the holiday season.

With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone’s hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. Annie is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City orphanage that is run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. With the help of the other girls in the orphanage, Annie escapes to the wondrous world of NYC.

In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, befriends President Franklin D. Roosevelt and ultimately finds a new home and family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

Performances are the first three weekends of December, with Friday and Saturday shows starting at 7:30 p.m. (except Dec. 1, which will start at 8 p.m.) and Sunday matinees beginning at 3 p.m.

Tickets are $35 for adults, $32 for military/seniors, $25 for students and $15 for children. Order tickets online at footlightplayers.net or by calling the box office at (843) 722-4487.
