Thank you for coming to our second 1992 Fringe show - Annie.

This is by far our biggest production to date, with a cast of over 50, a 12-piece orchestra, an army of backstage workers and so on. I have er\ioyed working with John Howden, Musical Director, for this production and also with Allison Grant and Sharon Boyd who have choreographed the show, and also assisting with the direction. I do hope that you will enjoy Annie as much as the company has er\ioyed working in the show. Your support is very much appreciated and I do hope to see you at future productions, including our Pantomime.
