Huntington High School is presenting a unique version of a classic musical this weekend - they're staging Annie Jr. in American Sign Language and Spoke English! Shows will be presented Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 3:00 p.m.
This junior production of everyone's favorite redheaded orphan, Annie, is a unique opportunity for the Deaf community to participate and engage in performing arts while bringing Deaf awareness to the hearing population. There are two casts: one on-stage using American Sign Language and a second cast off-stage voicing the characters using spoken English.
The show is being produced and directed by a Huntington High student - Zadokite Wood, who tackled the show as part of her capstone project for her A.A.S. American Sign Language degree from Mountwest Community & Technical College.
The Herald-Dispatch posted some pictures of the show (taken by Larry Butcher) which you can check out here: http://www.herald-dispatch.com/_recent_news/photos-annie-jr/collection_d1a3deb8-224b-11e8-8f90-1fe1c0805812.html
