There are still some openings for kids in grades 1 – 6 in the Newton Youth Players adapted summer production of the all time favorite hit ‘Annie’ inspired by the well-known comic strip. Based on Little Orphan Annie and her dog Sandy and their search for a family of their own in depression-era New York City. Popular songs include Tomorrow, It’s the Hard-Knock Life, Maybe and You’re Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile.
