Annie was great! My friends and I always make a night out of it to go see the High School plays but this time they really out did themselves. If this play portrayed the future actors and actresses of our generation, our country is in for some quality entertainment!

Annie truly was great! Every performer and performance was top notch; probably one of the most moving shows I have seen. Looking toward to seeing the cast perform once again on Freddy night!!
