Show Parent Information

Annie Friends and Family!! What a show! One more weekend to go!
 
Strike Party Information:
Strike Party is awesome!! It's fun putting on a show, but theater also comes with responsibility! It's just like a family dinner. You don't just eat and leave a mess for someone else to clean up! The whole cast/crew along with their families is needed to "strike" the set (take everything down and out) to put Louden back to the way it was, or even better, than before we came!
 
Then our Strike party begins at 7pm!! There will be Secret Pal reveals, cast group skits, acknowledgments, awards, and a delicious New York style dinner. It's a time to enjoy all the hard work we have put in AND spend one last time together as the Annie Cast!!
 
Beauty and the Best Audition Information:
It's not too late to get registered for a Winter Class so you can audition for Beauty and the Beast!!

Please refer to your CYT Winter class "REGISTRATION EMAIL" confirmation for your access code to complete this registration.
