Award-winning Annie writers Martin Charnin (lyrics), Tom Meehan (book), and Charles Strouse (music) will reunite at BroadwayCon to discuss the creation of the long-running 1977 musical that introduced the iconic song “Tomorrow.”
Jennifer Ashley Tepper will moderate the January 27, 2017, panel that will also include original cast members to be announced.
The panel promises “the inside scoop on how Annie was written, its road to Broadway, backstage tales, and the legacy of everyone's favorite red-headed orphan.”
BroadwayCon runs January 27-29, 2017.
