Sentre Stage Musicals is staging the musical production “Annie” this weekend at the Doha British School.
The musical will be staged on March 13 at 7.30pm and on March 14 and 15 at 2.30pm and 7.30pm. Tickets are available for QR75 and QR100 at THE ONE in Landmark and Villaggio malls.
“Annie” is directed and produced by Angela Walton, who has directed many productions in Qatar, including “The Wizard of Oz”, “Miss Saigon” and “Oklahoma”.
Kristina Cheffins and Lauren Durrant are the choreographers and the vocal coach is Stephanie Gravelle.
Sentre Stage Musicals is an amateur dramatic society which produces musicals to raise funds to promote the arts, drama and music in Doha schools.
A talented group makes up the cast of Annie in this warm and winning production.
The band of orphans, inhabiting the New York City Municipal Orphanage, are on the top of their game from the opening bars of “It’s the Hard-Knock Life.”
The roles of Annie are shared by Hayley Binnekamp and Emilia Doe, both 12 years old, from DESS. Annie, convinced that her parents will one day return to reclaim her, tries to escape from the orphanage aided and abetted by a group of talented young girls who play the roles of the orphans.
“The orphans will delight the audiences with their dancing, ensemble acting and comic timing both in Act 1 and Act2,” a show spokesperson said.The Peninsula
