Annie - Theatre Love

 In Melbourne, we were lucky to see Annie the Musical!

For a start, the Regent Theatre, itself, was just beautiful, extremely ornate, I'm guessing art nouveau style. 
I was told to not take photos inside the theatre, but I did manage to get these shots before that, hee hee!







And the show was good family fun! EVERYBODY knows the song Tomorrow, which I LOVE,
even if Annie sings it a kajillion times! 


But there are some other great songs and dance routines too, especially Hard-Knock Life, by the orphans.


 The cast was fantastic, especially those little girls, who are all about 10 years old, bless 'em! 
Anthony Warlow, played the main role, and I was really impressed by the actor who played Grace, his secretary. I realised later, she also played Christine in Phantom of the Opera beside Anthony Warlow,
so, of course, she was brilliant. 


The sets were magnificent, being mostly the interior of a millionaire's mansion in the 1930s, so that suited me right down to the ground! 


I couldn't resist buying the Programme and CD on our way out. 


There's nothing like bellowing along to songs from a musical when driving in the car! 
I did that with the Wicked Soundtrack for about a year!

Catch Annie if you can!
