Singing Opportunities in "Annie" Production
Seeking performers or "Annie" Musical. Please see the details below. About the project: With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone's hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. She is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage that is run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. With the help of the other girls in the Orphanage, Annie escapes to the wondrous world of NYC. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations... and even befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt! She finds a new home and family in billionaire, Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy. Additional info: Those auditioning will be asked to read from the script and prepare a portion of a song (with accompaniment - no a capella singing, please). Please bring an instrumental backing track without the original artist's voice on the track (such as a YouTube Karaoke version of the song). A sound system will be available. Directors will also be doing a brief dance audition, so please wear comfortable clothing and footwear. If interested, please apply.
46 roles
He is a powerful, self-assured billionaire who always has his mind on business. While sometimes gruff and abrupt he has a kind heart. At first, he is awkwardly affectionate toward Annie, but he soon finds himself completely charmed by her. Vocally, he needs to be a strong baritone or second tenor with a solo-quality voice. Warbucks has over 100 lines and sings in 7 numbers.
With some mileage. She is the orphanage matron. Her distaste for her job and the children is obvious in every move she makes and every line she delivers. She is predictable and funny, in her ridiculous, cruel ways. Looking for an actress who can act with her whole body and a very good sense of comedic timing. Vocally, she is a strong alto with a solo-quality voice. Hannigan has over 100 lines and sings in 4 numbers.
She is the loyal private secretary to Oliver Warbucks. Grace is mature, calm, and classy. She is businesslike when dealing with Miss Hannigan, yet maternal toward Annie. Vocally, she is an alto to mezzo soprano with a solo-quality voice. Grace has over 100 lines and sings in 5 numbers.
Miss Hannigan's despicable brother. Rooster is flashy and selfassured. His "moves" are as smooth as a gambler's: sly, and deceiving. The actor playing this role should bring a sense of fun to the character and have a good sense of comic timing. Vocally, he needs to be a strong baritone or second tenor with a solo-quality voice. Rooster has just over 50 lines and sings in Easy Street.
Female; appears to be similar in age to Rooster. Lily is Rooster's airhead girlfriend. She is always distracted, although she manages to pick up on any conversation involving money.

Lily has just over 30 lines and sings in Easy Street.
