This weekend only Alamance Repertory Theater Company presents "Annie! The Musical". Annie will be presented at Triad Stage in Greensboro May 11-14th at 8:00 on Thursday, 8:00 on Friday, 8:00 on Saturday, and Sunday at 2:00.

For those of you who have not seen this musical based on the "Little Orphan Annie" comics, its about a 11 year old girl who is an orphan in search of her parents. Annie is a 11 year old girl who just wants to find them. In an attempt to leave the orphanage, Annie gets caught by a police man; and is brought back to the orphanage that is run by the horrible Mrs. Hannigan. Mrs. Hannigan meets a woman named Grace who is the private Secretary for Oliver Warbucks. Find out what happens next by attending this wonderful show for one weekend only at Triad!

The show features a wonderful cast including Phoenix Mangus (Oliver Warbucks), Ella Howell (Annie), Jessica Leigh (Mrs. Hannigan), Danielle Aj Storm (Lily St. Regis), Austin Rowland (Rooster Hannigan), and Eliya Watson (Grace Farell).

Music directed by Eliya Watson, and directed by Gill Hope Thornton (Aged 17) this show is sure to be a hit in the area this weekend!

Speaking of Gill Hope Thornton, did you know she is directing, and partial owner of the theater company at the young age of seventeen? She comments on what its like being seventeen and running her company, and being director of this production in this small interview.

Whats it like being seventeen, and running your own theater company?

It's hard. A lot harder than i expected. A lot of pressure is put on you, and i wasn't ready at the time to hold up a company. But with Walter Boyd's help, we are growing every day!

Whats it like directing a cast this large at the age of seventeen?

It's really hard. I think a lot of the cast had a hard time taking me seriously at first. When i showed them it was all business it started to go smoother, and now i have many new friends because of it!

Did you ever think Triad would be the space for the show? Did you consider any other spaces?

Triad was one of the first spaces i was looking at. I never expected to be able to put on a show in a theater space like this.

Tickets for Annie! Can be purchased through Triad Stage by calling (336)-272-0160 or online at http://triadstage.org/tickets. Come see the show!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
