About ‘Annie Live!’

“Annie Live!” stars Taraji P. Henson as the mean Miss Hannigan. Celina Smith plays the role of Annie. The musical features classic songs, including “Tomorrow” and “It’s the Hard Knock Life.” However, the production team is doing things a little differently this time around. Over the years, some of the songs from the Broadway musical have been left out of the movie adaptations. Neil Meron, the executive producer of all of NBC’s live musicals, said, “We’ve basically gone back to the original Broadway version and more or less have followed the structure of that show, adding back songs that no other film production ever used.”

Starring alongside Henson and Smith are Tituss Burgess as Rooster Hannigan, Megan Hilty as Lily St. Regis, Harry Connick Jr. as Daddy Warbucks, and Nicole Scherzinger as Grace.

NBC has seen success with other musical events, which began almost a decade ago. Some of NBC’s other events have included the following stories:

• The Sound of Music Live!
• Peter Pan Live!
• The Wiz Live!
• Hairspray Live!
• Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert
