The Tony Award-winning musical "Annie" is back to give a new generation the chance to experience the timeless tale of Little Orphan Annie. Performances at The Opera House in Boston are set to run June 13 - 25. Tickets go on sale Sunday, April 30, at 10 a.m.

This touring company stars Conrad John Schuck (far left) as Daddy Warbucks, Mackenzie Phillips as Lilly St. Regis, with newcomer Marissa O'Donnell (near left, with Sandy) in the title role.

With music by Charles Strouse and a book by Thomas Meehan, "Annie" will again be directed by its lyricist Martin Charnin, who brought the original production of "Annie" to Broadway in 1977.

Boasting a score that includes "It's The Hard-Knock Life," "Easy Street," "You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile" and the ever optimistic "Tomorrow," the original production of "Annie" won seven 1977 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Book and Score. It ran for 2377 performances and has subsequently been produced in cities around the world. The original production ranks as one of the Top 20 longest running shows in Broadway history.
