A heart-warming story of a lovable, red-haired singing orphan is coming to Oxford High School not tomorrow, but next week.
From March 25-28, more than 80 students from Oxford schools will perform the award-winning musical ‘Annie.?
The musical features the main characters Annie, Miss Hannigan and ‘Daddy? Warbucks. The songs to be performed include ‘Maybe?, ‘Hard Knock Life?, ‘Little Girls? and, of course, ‘Tomorrow?.
This local production will be produced and directed by Christopher Card with Peggy Mueller serving as associate director, Natalie Daverse as choreographer, Jim Gibbons as orchestra director, Jan Flynn as rehearsal and show pianist, and Josh Smokovitz as technical director.
Mallory Skilling leads the cast as Annie while Adam Silorey plays Daddy Warbucks, Sam Anderson plays Grace and Molly Bruner plays Ms. Hannigan.
‘The staff, cast, orchestra and crew are committed to raising the standard of excellence for school music theater and creating a show that will bring the audience to their feet,? Card said.
Show times are:
Wednesday, March 25 at 7 p.m.
This night includes a limited-seating $12 sneak preview dessert performance with an all-you-can-eat dessert buffet at intermission.
Thursday, March 26 at 7 p.m.
Friday, March 27 at 7 p.m.
Saturday, March 28 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for children and can be ordered by calling the ticket order hotline at 248-969-5321.
Oxford students attending the show with their parents or guardians will receive free tickets. However, this does not apply to the dessert performance.
Card added that due to the show’s popularity and to strong advance sales, it is recommended to call the ticket order hotline and order your tickets in advance.
‘Don’t wait until ‘Tomorrow? to get your tickets ? order them today,? he said.
