Lyric Light Opera Presents ANNIE in Kirkland WA and Mount Vernon WA
Leapin' Lizards! The popular comic strip heroine takes center stage in one of the world's best-loved musicals. 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 her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan.
With the help of the other girls in the Orphanage, ANNIE escapes to the wondrous and magical world of NYC. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, ANNIE foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations and 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.
Lyric Light Opera returns to Kirkland Performance Center and McIntyre Hall (Mount Vernon) this Fall 2013, bringing to the stage another acclaimed and exceptional family show that has garnered a staggering 14 Tony and Drama Desk awards, ANNIE.
