The smash-hit West End production of ANNIE, the world’s favourite family musical, returns to Newcastle starring Claire Sweeney as Miss Hannigan!
Set in 1930s New York, brave young Annie is forced to live a life of misery at Miss Hannigan’s orphanage.
Her luck soon changes when she’s chosen to spend a fairytale Christmas with famous billionaire, Oliver Warbucks. Meanwhile, spiteful Miss Hannigan has other ideas and hatches a plan to spoil Annie’s search for her true family…
With its Tony® award-winning book and score, including the unforgettable songs It’s The Hard-Knock Life, Easy Street, I Don’t Need Anything But You and Tomorrow, you can bet your bottom dollar that you’ll love it!
