Character Breakdown

​

Annie
Annie is a tough, streetwise urchin who is nevertheless vulnerable when she thinks she might lose what has become most important to her: a newfound "family" who loves her. She has to be motherly in scene one, independent in scene two, overwhelmed in scenes four and five, needy in scene seven, and hopeful for the future in scenes ten and eleven.  

 
The Orphans

SO MANY ORPHANS!
Molly, Tessie, July, Duffy, Kate and Pepper are the named orphans, but there can be as many orphans as the stage will hold! The orphans perform "It's the Hard Knock Life," "You're Never Fully Dressed Withouth a Smile" (a tap dance), and "Little Girls," as well as many other scenes! Gender: any

Miss Hannigan
The distasteful keeper of the orphanage. Must have an excellent sense of comic timing!

 
Grace Farrell
The secretary to Mr. Warbucks and a mother figure to Annie. Sings in "N.Y.C."

 
Rooster and Lily

Rooster and Lily are quite the team -- "team" being the operative word, as the characters play off each other constantly. Rooster is flashy and self-assured. Lily is always distracted, although she manages to pick up on any conversation involving money. Together they sing "Easy Street," the most challenging number in the show in terms of vocal range.  

​

Mr. Warbucks
Warbucks is middle-aged, self-assured and confident. At first awkwardly affectionate toward Annie, he soon finds himself completely charmed by her. Posture, walk, and speech patterns are very important.  

​

Sandy
In this production, Sandy is played by a human. Sandy is Annie's canine friend and scrappy in her own right. This dog also has to sing. Gender: any

 

And many more!

House servants including Drake, Mrs. Greer and Mrs. Pugh (and more), pedestrians, Bundles the laundryman, the chauffer, Louis Howe, the apple seller, the dogcatcher, featured dancers and, chorus members. Gender: any
