‘Annie’ Continues April 11-13

The UT Tyler Theatre Repertory Company’s final performances of the musical “Annie" will be April 11-13 in Vaughan Auditorium.

Performances will begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday.

Tickets are $15 for general admission and $8 for senior adults, UT Tyler alumni and non-UT Tyler students. There is a group rate of $6 per ticket for 10 or more purchased. UT Tyler students, faculty, staff and retirees can receive two free tickets.

For Sunday matinee performances, a child with a sack of nonperishable and/or canned food items to be donated to the East Texas Food Bank will receive free admission. The child must be accompanied by a ticketed adult. (One child per ticketed adult; not available to group admissions.)

To reserve tickets contact the box office at 903-566-7254 or 903-566-7490. The box office is open from noon to 5 p.m. daily.

The life story of the greatly loved Little Orphan Annie will be set against the backdrop of the reality of the Depression era, when orphans were less the stuff of comic action and were true unfortunates in a time of social deprivation and economic chaos. “Annie" will be a presentation of fantasy, love and witty lyrics.

“When our own current events are filled with tragedy at home and abroad, a production of ‘Annie’ that reminds us of the power of childlike optimism that there can be a better tomorrow is well worth the effort," said Dr. James Hatfield, UT Tyler director of theatre. “This production will both entertain and educate."

The more than 60 cast members include UT Tyler students as well as adults and children from the community.
