Annie Live is the latest live musical program that has been broadcasted on the NBC Network. The show can be said to be preceded by Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch Musical Live and draws its inspiration from Thomas Meehan’s Annie. Robert Greenblatt produced the live performance, Alex Rudzinski and Neil Meron with the production houses, namely Chloe Productions; Village Roadshow Entertainment Group; Sony Pictures Television and Universal Television.
The plot of this live show is about Annie, a young orphan whose life changes as she gets adopted by Oliver Warbucks and gets resented by Miss Hannigan, who wants to get her back by hook or by crook.
What are Fans Talking About it After Watching?
It is clearly evident that the live show totally smites the audience. The stage, the changes, clothes lighting all are excellently put into work and have successfully produced one of the best ever show. The characters have played their roles efficiently, thereby making the story’s overall plot highly praiseworthy.
The optimistic approach of Annie is the key factor for the show being loved by almost all who watched it. There are some odds as well, like diverging from the focus point or declaring Warbucks is a Republican since such things become irrelevant compared to the plot.
Plot
The story revolves around Annie, a young orphan girl who remains under the strict control of Miss Hannigan. She was abandoned by her parents and thus had no one as such to be loved by. Annie seems to be a very optimistic child who tries to keep and dreams all alive. Destiny soon intervenes, and she gets adopted by Oliver Warbucks, who seems to be in love with the girl’s attitude.
Nothing is so easy. Miss Hannigan seems not at all happy with such an event and determines to bring back Annie as soon as possible from her new home. So what will happen in the end? Watch it to know the ending.
