On-The-Road Update










Greetings All!

Hope everyone had a great holiday! All is well on the Annie front and we are again getting ready to move to yet another city, Birmingham, AL is the next stop. We have been enjoying the warm (warmer that is, next to New Haven, Ct) and are glad to be continuing on to another warm climate. Tempe has proved a great little city. The theatre was beautiful, a Frank Lloyd Wright creation, and the downtown area was adorable (lots to do).

Well... one last day of 2007 and then we dive head first into the New Year and the continuation of The Annie National Tour.

From all of us here on tour we wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!

On-The-Road Update










Hello everyone and Merry Christmas!

Welcome to our Christmas Eve! The entire company is traveling somewhere at this moment. Most of us are in the air on our way to Tempe, AZ, others are on their way to visit loved ones (talk about a short vacation). We have already drawn attention to ourselves on this travel day. Many company members took to juggling (some better than others) in the airport terminal. People seem to love it, makes the fact that we are all traveling on Christmas Eve a little more fun.

Our week in New Haven was very nice, quite the change to be in one place for an entire week. We had pretty temped weather, which made it easy to sight-see, and believe me being on the campus of Yale there was much to see. We wrapped up our Secret Santa gift exchange this week on Friday.

Everyone had a great time, many, many surprises.Everyone did a great job at keeping their identity under wraps.

Well, we are all excited for Christmas Day! We all wish we could be with family and friends, but… I said it once and I'll say it again… we could not wish for a better 2nd family to spend the day with. For those of you scattered around the country have a wonderful day and a safe trip back, as for all or our family and friends we wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS!

XOXOXOXOXOXO The Company - "Annie" National Tour

On-The-Road Update










Seasons Greetings All!

Well the time is upon us, the holidays are here!

We are all getting ready to leave our buses behind for a while and fly from city to city. For about the next month will be staying in the cities for a week at a time (wow, knowing what city your in when you wake up).

At the end of next week our company will scatter to the wind, most of us taking an airplane ride to sunny Tempe, AZ and the rest will be dotted all around the country. We are all excited to celebrate the holidays, be it with company members of a non-traditional dinner in Arizona or with friends and family gathered round a turkey. To top off the excitement, the company will be unveiling our Secret Santa's on Friday. I am sure this will prove much fun.

Well, time to pack up once again and move on to the next city. From all of us here at the "Annie" National Tour to all of you, Merry Christmas and Seasons Greetings!

Season's greetings!










Hello everyone,

It is another exciting week on the road with the Annie National Tour.

Busy does not even begin to describe this week. This will be (by far) our busiest week on tour. We are traveling to 4 states and six cites in one week. Talk about sight seeing. Good thing we decorated the bus for the holidays, we are going to be seeing a lot of it this week.

We had our first snow two nights ago and goodness was it pretty, blanketed the entire city of Scranton, PA in two feet of the fluffy stuff. Some of the girls went out early in the morning and had their first snowball fight of the season (the adults even joined in for a little snowball throwing therapy after our final show).

Well like I said busy, work is beckoning. Promise to catch up with you more next week!
