Brooke Bankston

as Annie

is a Junior at Normal West High School.  She  previously played Cha-Cha Digregoria in Grease  and will be playing Sharpay in High School Musical this summer. Brooke participates in many local events but on opposite ends of the spectrum. She plays Snow White in the yearly Princess Coronation and volunteers at the Haunted Trail every year. She enjoys making kids smile as well as making them pee their pants in fright! Brooke would like to thank her parents and closest friends for always supporting her no matter what role and making sure she feels proud of herself.

Natalie Brutlag

is in 9th grade here at West. This is her first musical, and she is in orphan ensemble! First of all, she would like to thank her parents for putting up with her practicing singing and dancing for Annie for these past couple of months, and for picking her up from rehearsal every day. She also wants to thank her friends, for also putting up with her singing and dancing for Annie these past couple of months. Fun facts about Natalie: she plays percussion in band, she also plays piano, and am learning drumset. Natalie hopes you all enjoy the show!

Tyler Charlett

as Rooster Hannigan

is a sophomore at Normal West High School. As for his previous musical experience, he was in Normal West's production of Seussical last year, and he had a lot of fun! He wants to say thank you to his family and friends for tolerating his constant singing, and for always encouraging him to pursue what he loves most: music!
