Annie (Gallery Players)

See it if Too late. .not my kind of show but best version. Some nice tap numbers. good acting by Jim Madden as Warbucks and Heather Gault as Grace.

Don't see it if the orchestra overwhelmed the singers and then even the dialogues when no songs were needed

Also Director Mar, H. deserves accolades.
The Costume & the Sets for a
COMMODITY theater were
wonderful.
The 7 youngsters group presentations were great.... Read more Read less

See it if you are okay with a mixed-talent cast in an off-off Broadway venue giving it their all in a decent production overall.

Don't see it if you are bothered by uneven performances, not the most comfortable venue or have trouble with stairs - lots of stairs.

See it if you enjoy musicals with clever scripts lots of dancing, singing, and beautiful costumes.

Don't see it if you expect a full professional experience. This is folding chairs in a basement with parents of the cast. Still it is charming.

See it if you’re looking for fun, light-hearted entertainment for the family, or appreciate local theatre.

Don't see it if you don’t enjoy the local theatre vibe, and are looking for a super polished show.

See it if Fantastic Broadway-quality musical. The little girls can SING! Huge friendly dog on stage. Time flies by, all your favorite songs too.

Don't see it if You don't like musicals

See it if you like the musical Annie. It's a charming way to pass an afternoon or evening. Might be good for kids, but not too young.

Don't see it if you don't like the musical Annie or young children playing children in a show.

Also There are some surprisingly good performances by the adults in the cast, and some decent dance & tap choreography.... Read more Read less

Also It may be me but Mr.Madden looked like a bald Tom Hanks?

See it if Another winning, lavish, big musical in the comfy charming Gallery Players Theater interests you. You'd like your jaded self to be won over.

Don't see it if Perhaps you don't like big, full musicals?

Also They won me over with this one. I wasn't expecting to adore an 'Annie'. ;) Glad I went. I'll go again, too.... Read more Read less

See it if you're in the mood for a heartwarming, high-quality community theatre production of a classic musical with cute kids and a cute dog.

Don't see it if you find nonprofessional child actors of varying skill levels annoying. The physical space feels a bit like a spruced-up school gym.

See it if great yet simple backdrops - good singing - cute and fun

Don't see it if if you want a big styled production - but see it

See it if if you can appreciate a 1/2 pro & 1/2 amateur cast. pretty good job of holding it all together and keep things moving.

See it if you're interested to see how an off-off-Broadway company overcomes the limitations of venue and casting to present a good representation.

Don't see it if your standards are professional-only (sometimes they would be met, not always), or if you dislike child performers (there are 6 or 7).

See it if you've never seen this delightful theatre classic for kids. It really does have a lot of messages that are relevant for today's society.

Don't see it if you can't stand musical theatre or shows that star kids.

See it if if you like ANNIE the show....good production by a local group of players....everyone, including the dog was just wonderful

Don't see it if if don't like classical broadway musicals

See it if you like a kid story, with an easy and predictable plot and with nice, famous songs. performed by a small, really good company.

Don't see it if you prefer complitcated stories, which need you to really follow the storyline and the songs.

Also This production of ''Annie'' is a small one, but I found it well-made. I saw really good performances by some of the adults, and I was impressed by some of the children's acting. They did a great job with the stage and the costumes, and I had a very nice evening watching their show.... Read more Read less

See it if You want to enjoy a family-friendly musical with a great score and simple but entertaining plot.

Don't see it if You prefer complex storyline. You're expecting a polished production.

Also Such a delightful production with some very talented (and young) cast members! There were moments that felt a little amateur-ish, but those could certainly be forgotten considering how good the rest of the show was. I was taken by surprise by the strobe light number which gave me a headache, but that special effect was pretty clever.... Read more Read less

See it if you love a local theater take on a classic

Don't see it if you're expecting a broadway caliber performance

See it if You have 2 hours to spare in your day and are taking the little ones . They will enjoy .

Don't see it if You are expecting all the bells and whistles of a play .or you are looking for perfection in acting and singing from the entire ensemble .

Also I was expecting more from the cast . I was not impressed with the young actress that played Annie , she seemed unsure about her lines . The adult performers were more believeable especially the actor who played daddy war bucks. He had a great singing voice and presence on stage .... Read more Read less

See it if You like Annie and want to see a community theater production of it. There is nothing innovative here. But if you have kids or love Annie...

Don't see it if The performances are very uneven and it is not very well produced. Looks a little cheap.

See it if you love the classic musical Annie. Want to hear some amazing voices and don't mind trooping it to Brooklyn!

Don't see it if You're looking for a big broadway production (this is not it). Are not forgiving to actors making little mistakes here & there.
