Who's Who

Maanya Shah

as Annie

Maanya hopes that everyone will enjoy her performance as much as she has LOVED preparing for the part. “This is a fantastic way to celebrate my six wonderful years at PS11 and such a special experience.” HEARTFELT gratitude to Ms Golub, Ms Sarah, Ms Wurman, Ms Hollander and, of course, Mr Bender, for helping me find my “inner Broadway.” Love to mum and dad, always.

Ella Incantalupo

as Duffy (orphan)

I play Duffy, an orphan. However I actually have 1 sister, a mom, a dad and 2 cats. I live in Queens (not an orphanage) and there are 7 other family members who live on my block! When I am not in school I enjoy playing with friends, family and my cat. In the future I hope to be in more plays. Thank you for watching Annie!
Chelsea Brea

as Kate (orphan)

Chelsea loves horseback riding, ice skating, hiking, reading, and hanging out at her country house. This is her first full play and she described the experience as: “Busy. A lot happening at once. Worth it!” She has enjoyed working with the ANNIE cast, Ms. Sarah, Ms. Golub, Ms. Wurman and especially her fellow orphans. Love to her sister for running lines and to her Mom and Dad for their support.
