Annie Kids’ Night to Feature Special Guests, Launch eBay Auction

Alison Smith, Danielle Brisebois, Roxanne Dundish, and Julie Stevens, who all appeared in the original Broadway production of Annie, will be among the celebrities on hand for a special “Kids’ Night” performance of Annie at L.A.’s Pantages Theater on Tuesday, October 11. Stevens recently filmed a documentary about former Annie cast members entitled Life After Tomorrow.

In addition, the event will also serve as a kickoff for a special eBay auction of two special Annie posters to benefit the Los Angeles Dream Center. One poster, of the original Broadway production, is autographed by cast members including Smith and Sarah Jessica Parker and composer Charles Strouse; the second poster, from the current production, is autographed by its stars, including Mackenzie Phillips, Conrad John Schuck, and Marissa O’Donnell. The auction will continue through November 15.

Kids’ Night is a regularly scheduled L.A. Broadway event, in which children are admitted free (with the purchase of a full-price adult ticket), and features pre-show activities including games, music, and the chance to meet the show’s cast. Phillips, O’Donnell, and Lola, the loveable canine who plays Sandy, will all be present on the 11th.
