Our musical in the 2017-2018 school year was directed by Mrs. Margie Alejandro! Mrs. Alejandro was an SUSD Music teacher for 22 years. She was helped by choreographer Mrs. Shiyo Yamamoto. Our parent producer was our own Ms. Sia Marks.
Annie, Jr. is a special version of the musical Annie edited especially for elementary school children. Annie, Jr. is funny and has a well-balanced cast with roles for both boys and girls!
Students attended 2-3 rehearsals per week (see below), and we ask for a monetary donation and volunteer time for each student. (Our suggested donation is $250 per student and approximately 12 hours of volunteer time — this would allow us to break even on the production.)
