A New "Annie" from EDMT

As news of mortgage meltdowns, falling stock prices and grim forecasts for our nation’s economy cause Americans anxiety today, El Dorado Musical Theatre’s new fall production, “Annie,” takes us back to 1933, a worse time in our nation’s history when job loss, financial uncertainty and a crashing stock market were foremost on the minds of our nation’s citizens. But this rags to riches comic strip story turned Broadway musical, running from November 21-30th at the Jill Solberg Theatre in Folsom, aims to leave you feeling like “The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow” and Annie’s never-give-up, positive attitude takes the depression out of The Great Depression.


It’s been five years since EDMT produced “Annie.” But five years and numerous Elly awards later, EDMT hopes to reach a new level, improving upon every aspect of this show, which closed after sixteen sold out performances.
