Summer Stock theaters are a part of life in much of the world (they certainly are in New England, where I live.) I wish I'd seen this performance of Annie:
Anderegg's Annie is delightful. On Friday she was nearly upstaged by Tetley, the dog playing Sandy. At first, Tetley didn't seem to want to be on stage. Anderegg attempted to wrangle him and offer him treats, but he just dragged her around the set. During a bit with a policeman played by A. Donald Cross, Tetley wriggled out of his collar and fled the scene entirely, leaving troupers Anderegg and Cross to improvise a scene about the dog without the dog. The audience was delighted by the unintentional comedy.
