About the Show

The Gallery Players presents the beloved musical adventure about a lovable spirited orphan, based on the popular comic strip by Harold Gray, and famous for its classic songs such as 'Tomorrow' and 'It's a Hard Knock Life.'

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. She 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…and even befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt! She finds a new home and family in billionaire, Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

'Annie' was the winner of seven Tony awards in 1977, including Best Musical, Best Score, and Best Book.

Adorable, Charming, Amateur, Indulgent, Great staging

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.

Entertaining, Funny, Delightful, Charming

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. Read more

Entertaining, Great staging, Great singing, Funny, Ambitious

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.

Entertaining, Ambitious, Fun, Tuneful, Diverse

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).
