Highway 12 Adult Day Trip: Chanhassen Dinner Theatre Wednesday, November 11, 2026 Annie is a beloved, high-energy musical set in New York City during the Great Depression. The story follows Annie, a spirited and optimistic orphan who dreams of finding her parents and believes that “the sun will come out tomorrow,” no matter how tough life gets. Living in a harsh orphanage run by the bitter Miss Hannigan, Annie’s luck changes when she is chosen to spend the holidays with billionaire Oliver Warbucks. Her bravery and honesty quickly win over Warbucks and his secretary, Grace Farrell. When Warbucks offers a reward to find Annie’s parents, greedy schemers—including Miss Hannigan—hatch a plan to take advantage of the situation. Filled with memorable songs like “Tomorrow,” “It’s the Hard-Knock Life,” and “Maybe,” Annie is a heartwarming tale of hope, family, and resilience. With its strong message, lovable characters, and upbeat music, the musical continues to charm audiences of all ages.

Dancing is showing up anyway. It's trying something new even when you feel awkward. It's laughing when you mess up. It's moving your body without asking for permission. It's community, It's courage. It's joy. I've seen people walk in shy and walk out glowing. I've seen beginners become leaders. What does being a dancer mean to you? I think it's bigger than steps and counts!
