About This Show

The smash-hit production of Annie comes to the Manchester Opera House for two weeks only direct from London’s West End. This ‘glorious revival’ (The Times) stars award-winning actress Anita Dobson (EastEnders, Wicked, Loose Women, Chicago, Call The Midwife) as the tyrannical Miss Hannigan!

Set in 1930s New York during The Great Depression, brave young Annie is forced to live a life of misery at Miss Hannigan’s orphanage. Her luck soon changes when she’s chosen to spend a fairytale Christmas with famous billionaire, Oliver Warbucks. Meanwhile, spiteful Miss Hannigan has other ideas and hatches a plan to spoil Annie’s search for her true family…

With its Tony® award-winning book and score, including the unforgettable songs It’s The Hard-Knock Life, Easy Street, I Don’t Need Anything But You and Tomorrow, you can bet your bottom dollar that you’ll love it!
