Day 308 – Annie

Today for my intention, Vinny and I went to see our friends’ daughter in the lead role of the play Annie. I just LOVE this play! I have a vivid memory of my sister singing “Tomorrow” to Heather to sleep at night when we were kids. My sister has such a beautiful voice and Heather always looked so forward to that. I remember her and I acting out “It’s a hard knock life” and other songs, too.  I also remember my parents taking us to see the play Annie in Chicago when we were kids, which was a real treat. We had the record and I knew every word to every song! (I still know most) Lol

So I was quite excited to have received the invitation a while back to attend today’s performance and obviously quickly agreed. We have never been to this particular theatre and when we pulled up we were instantly impressed with the nostalgic feel of the building, marquee, will call and ticket box. But this was nothing compared to when we stepped inside. No detail was left out. From the beautiful detailed walls and ceilings, carpeting, fireplace, fountains, statues, seating and believe it or not….even the bathrooms with the designated attached room with plush seating, multiple mirrors and area for prep and primp.

We took our seats and enjoyed the show. The kids did such an amazing job. Afterwards we met up with our friends and greeted their daughter with flowers we bought for her as a “congratulations”. This was a great intention and a lovely nostalgic kind of Sunday. #HGAL
