After enjoying Rent, Spelling Bee, & Curtains, I thought that the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center was on the upswing. However, this production of Annie lowered the bar - considerably. It was impressive to see a 14 piece orchestra for this show, but unfortunately, HEARING them was a whole different experience. From the first flubbed note to the last cymbal crash, this orchestra struggled through the score (and the horn section - OUCH!) The girl playing Annie sang well (and LOUD), but seemed to get easily distracted on stage. Some scenes were just plain embarrassing to watch. The only standout performance of the night was the girl who played Pepper (the youngest in the cast). Come on Simi Valley, I know you can do better!

The Actors' Repertory Theatre of Simi performance of Annie was refreshing and "homey." By filling this small venue with the familiar sounds and images of the season it delivered exactly what I expected. It's super kid friendly and will deliver plenty of opportunities for fun conversations with your kids afterward. Yes, the orchestra wasn't at the L.A. Philharmonics level, the stage design was a bit small-town and Annie sometimes sang very loud, but I also only paid less then the price of a regular movie ticket to see a live stage play, which makes up for all of this, as far as I'm concerned. I highly recommend taking your family to see Annie at the Cultural Arts Center in Simi Valley.

They truly did a great job. As far as the person giving it 2 stars, the orchestra might have started out a bit rocky...however, they ended up doing a great job. They are NON-PAID!...all volunteers.
The cast was great! Voices were great...acting was great. The 10 year old who played Annie was wonderful!
This was a fun performance and truly surprised my wife and I how good it was.

Quotes & Highlights

Description

Annie is a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

Winner of nine 1977 Tony Awards -- including Best Musical -- this celebrated family show comes to the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center. With its bright tuneful score, featuring memorable songs such as "Tomorrow", "A Hard Knock Life", "Maybe" and "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile", Annie has long since become a part of our nation's cultural heritage, along with an eclectic mix of colorful characters, and a classic villainess. It's no wonder this heartwarming show has become a contemporary classic.
