‘Annie Jr.’ production gives special needs students the chance to act
a slightly shortened version of the popular Broadway musical, starring people with special needs ages 10 to 21.
The performers are joined on stage by a group of “peer mentors” – children their same age – who volunteer to work side-by-side with them during rehearsals and the final performances. Mentors are expected to know all of their partners’ lines, songs, and blocking, and are on-stage during the production, in costume.
