- HRHollie RobertsNov 9, 20255.0I recently saw Annie and what a night of fun it was! I haven’t enjoyed a play like that in years! I’ve been to many while living in Jacksonville including Le Miserables, The Christmas Carol, Its a Wonderful Life, The Grinch, Flashdance, and Chicago but this may have been my favorite of all of them! The choreography was very well done and I loved watching the children. Please have more with children like Peter Pan or Newsies! The staff were so friendly and helpful and the seats comfortable. I was in the last row but had no problem seeing or hearing anything. My only negative was the vulgarity in a couple scenes and the occasional swear word. It would have been so much better without it, especially being a kid’s production. I enjoyed the set and acting but especially the kids dancing. Have more productions like this! One of my favorite nights this year! Great job Samantha Kate! We loved watching you shine!
