January 20, 2012 PRESS RELEASE DREAMCOAT FANTASY THEATRE Contact Information: Hali Carlson, 472-1590 or cell 471-0350 Dreamcoat Fantasy Theatre is proud to present ANNIE , on January 24th, 25th, 26th, for our school presentations and Jan 27th and 28th for our public performances at The Capitol Centre. Under the direction of Jesse Beam, Krysten Griffith, Karen Schiavone and Shelly Price, 94 children from grades 3 8, from all District Boards, have been rehearsing at West Ferris S.S. since September to present this show at North Bay`s Capitol Centre. Annie (Maria Falconi) is a spunky depression era orphan determined to find her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City orphanage run by cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan (Julianna Head). In adventure after fun filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigans evil schemes, befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Darren Summersby) and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks (Jarod Shea), his personal secretary Grace Farrell (Cecilia Mogan) and a lovable mutt named Sandy (Gifford Smith). School presentations have been sold out for weeks, but tickets are still available for the evening performances on January 27th and 28th, 2012. Tickets for the 7:30 p.m. performances are $17.00 each and can be purchased at Creative Learning or at The Capitol Centre box office. -30-
