Annie: Stage show

My first supporting role was in the Eastham Community Theater production of Annie. I was lucky enough to be cast as Rooster Hannigan which involved singing, dancing and a decent amount of stage time. Among all the roles I have ever had, this went down as one of my most enjoyable. The cast were fantastic and throughout the run had become my family away from home. I still have contact with a few to this day.
Ending a show is always difficult and the final night leaves a gap than needs filling, and this show was no exception. Even though I was on the other side of the world, I was determined to carry on with my chosen past-time... although it would be some time before I next walked the planks...
