Presented by Scotts Valley Performing Arts Coming to Scotts Valley and the Williams Center at Olivet University is the musical theatre classic, Annie! From the same company and director that brought you the rip-roaring fun of Annie Get Your Gun comes your favorite red-headed dreamer along with the nasty Miss Hannigan, the prosperous tycoon Oliver Warbucks, his lovely assistant Grace Farrell, the con-artist team of Rooster Hannigan and Lily St. Regis, and all those adorable little orphans! ![]() Annie is a tale that goes beyond the recognizable tunes, the unforgettable movie adaptation, and the lovable dog. It is a story of hope: amidst loneliness, sorrow, darkness, insurmountable odds and the depths of utter hopelessness itself. SVPA’s Annie is about optimism, joy, family, and love, all contained in the fun and flash of an energetic, fast paced, professional-quality production.
