in Annie
Auditions were held in Toronto, London
and Grand Bend this past spring as hun-
dreds of aspiring youngsters gathered with
hope in their hearts and a glimmer in their
star -struck eyes. Their dream was to be cast
in Huron Country Playhouse's production of
the famed Broadway musical ANNIE.
General Manager. of the Playhouse,
Heather Redick was "overwhelmed by all
the interest, enthusiasm and talent witness-
ed among the local, non-professional young
people at these auditions.. It's been very
rewarding!"
So many wonderfully appropriate
children turned up, that the Playhouse has
been granted concessions by Actor's Equity
Association to allow for the casting of extra
local youngsters in ANNIE.
Some, of the children are Ailsa Craig's own
Julie De Vree; Arkona's Angela Richter;
Chatham's Susan Carter, Clinton's Jessi
Ford;. Corunna's Jamie Bracewell;
Dashwood's Kelly Hoffman and Jennifer
Weigand; Exeter's Melanie Philips;
Forest's Rachel Bartlett and Mary Greinar;
Goderich's Rebecca Penn, Jackie Rau and
Tanya Ross; Grand Bend's Sarah Ban-
nister, Chantelle Crabe and Patti Desjar-
dine; Hensall's Victoria Bisback; London's
Andrea l3ettger, Jacki Dykes, Karen Suzuki
and Stephanie Taylor; Michell's Cindy No-
ble; and Sarnia's Marie Stacey and Lynne
Milsom (and Wiggins Milsom).
Wiggins is the Milsom's household pet,
and -one of a menagerie of seven. Being an
extra talented canine has landed him a lead
role as "Sandy", Annie's dog.
Sebringville's Kristen Tara; Stratford's
Caroline and Colleen Rothwell; Strathroy's
Allison Wolder; Woodham's Sarah Bradford
and Zurich's Aimee Gelinas are also
- included.
Annie, book by Thomas Meehan, music by
Charles Strouse and lyrics by Martin Char-
nin, is the smash hit Broadway musical and
has been performed in theatres around the
world.
Meehan's book is set in the Depression
and opens in the city orphanage where An-
nie, (Sudbury's Theresa Stewart), has
dwelled since her parents abandoned her as
a baby. After an eleven year stay, Annie
decides that it is high time that she locates
her missing parents and runs away.
Returned promptly by one of New York's
finest, she is selected by Oliver Warbuck's
secretary to spend the Christmas holidays
at the Warbuck mansion. Needless to say,
the small red-headed orphan adds vitality
and spirit to the festive season and touches
everyone's heart with joy and hope. The rest
is Broadway history.
Annie arrives in Grand Bend to preview
August 12 and rung to September 6. There
will be performances`Friday, Saturday and
Monday of the Labour Day long weekend.
Plenty of tickets are still available! Call
