The Monument Arts & Cultural Center presents the Broadway hit show, "Annie," for the upcoming holiday season.

Featuring professional actors and children from the surrounding area in the roles of the orphans and Annie herself, performances will run December 5-8 and December 12-14. There will be two casts of children.

Tickets are available at https://www.MonumentCenterVT.org.

The story of "Annie" takes place during the Great Depression and tells the story of spunky orphan Annie, based on the comic strip that debuted 100 years ago in the New York Daily News. Raised in a New York City orphanage run by the child-hating Miss Hannigan, Annie is taken in by the wealthy Daddy Warbucks and his assistant Grace. Annie believes her parents are still alive, so Warbucks offers a reward for the couple to come forward. That sends Miss Hannigan, her brother Rooster, and his girlfriend Lily scheming to claim the award for themselves.
