SSCC Theatre will host open auditions for the upcoming summer production of "Annie." Auditions, open to students and community members, will be held for adults 6:30 p.m. Friday, May 25, and for children 10 a.m. Saturday, May 26, in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on Southern State Community College's Central Campus, 100 Hobart Drive, Hillsboro.

In the classical musical production, Annie is a spunky Depression-era girl determined to find her parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan.

In adventure after fun-filled adventure, Annie foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, befriends President Franklin Roosevelt, and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell and a lovable mutt named Sandy.

Adults interested in auditioning should prepare a one- to two-minute monologue (preferably comedic) similar to the desired role, as well as one or two songs from "Annie" to be sung a cappella.

Children should prepare a monologue from the choices found at www.sscctheatre.com/auditions<http://www.sscctheatre.com/auditions> (Alice from Alice in Wonderland for girls, Huck from The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn for boys), as well as one or two songs from "Annie" to be sung a cappella.

"Annie" is directed by Rainee Angles, with musical direction by David White. It will be performed Aug. 3-5, 2012. For more information about "Annie," the rehearsal schedule and other audition information, please visit www.sscctheatre.com.
