On May 18, 19, and 20, Ridgewood Middle School
will present Annie Jr., directed by Mr. Alex Mullen, Ms. Jennifer Shanks,
and Mrs. Kirstin Slusser. With a delightful personality and plenty of wit,
Annie, played by Kya Masloski, will charm her way into the hearts of many as
she journeys from orphan to daughter of the billionaire Oliver Warbucks, played
by Royce Shaffer. From her first appearance in a 1930s New York City orphanage,
where she and other orphans are tormented by Miss Hannigan, played by Alex
Martin, to her life with Oliver Warbucks, his secretary Grace, played by Keeley
Carter, and her new mutt Sandy, played by Keira Schrock, Annie captivates the
audience through her humor, determination, and innocence.
The Ridgewood Middle School Drama Club is
thrilled to welcome to the stage over 70 students. After numerous plays, this
heart-warming production will be the first musical presented by Ridgewood
Middle School. Sixth grade student Kya Masloski will star as Annie in the
production. Some of her favorite aspects of drama include the audition process,
trying on costumes for the first time, and most importantly, spending every
afternoon with friends. “What I like about being Annie is that she always looks
at the bright side of things and tries to keep everyone’s spirits up.”
