Annie Live!
Photo: First Look at Celina Smith as the Title Role in ANNIE LIVE!
LEAPIN’ LIZARDS! We are so happy to share with you a brand new FIRST LOOK photo for NBC‘s upcoming live televised production of the beloved musical Annie. This one is really special because we got that early sneak peak of the live TV musical’s leading lady 12 year old newcomer Celina Smith (The National Tour of Disney’s The Lion King and TV’s Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan) donning the iconic red dress as the title role of the beloved spunky and optimistic orphan herself. Of course, she’s hanging with her best friend companion “Sandy The Dog”.
Smith joins the unforgettable exciting all-star lineup of this highly anticipated TV production just in time for the holiday season. This consists of….
Oscar and Emmy nominee Taraji P. Henson in the role of the nasty “Miss Agatha Hannigan”,
Grammy and Emmy winner and Tony nominee Harry Connick Jr. as billionaire “Oliver “Daddy” Warbucks”,
Olivier Award nominee and Pop star Nicole Scherzinger as personal assistant “Grace Ferrell”,
Emmy nominee Tituss Burgess as scheming con-artist “Daniel “Rooster” Hannigan”,
and
his Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt co-star Tony winner Jane Krakowski as the sassy, flirty, sleazy, and sticky-fingered “Lily St. Regis”.
THE SUN WILL COME OUT with NBC’s ANNIE LIVE set for December 2nd, 2021.
Who is excited?
How incredible is Celina as “Annie”?!!!
