Whoopi Goldberg has shared a first-look image of herself as Miss Hannigan in the upcoming stage revival of the musical Annie.
See it below. “It may not be your grandma’s Annie, but it will be fun,” Goldberg teased on The View today. The touring revival will play The Theater at Madison Square Garden this holiday season, with Goldberg, as previously announced, joining the show in the second week of its five-week engagement at the venue.
The Sister Act vet will play the role from December 11 – January 5. Check out complete tour details here. As Miss Hannigan, who runs an orphanage and terrorizes Annie and the other little girls, Goldberg will get the second biggest showstopping song of the musical (after Annie’s “Tomorrow,” of course): Along with a couple criminals she recruits, Hannigan celebrates a shady plan in the deliciously villainous “Easy Street.” Goldberg said of her return to the stage, “It’s been a while, and it’s kinda exciting and scary.” She added, “The music is a lot [but] the music is easy because it’s all in my range.” Goldberg has appeared on Broadway seven times, from her groundbreaking 1984 solo show Whoopi Goldberg to Sister Act, her most recent in 2011.
Hazel Vogel, who Goldberg said turns 12 today, plays the title role. Here is photo Goldberg shared on ‘The View’: By providing your information, you agree to our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
