Annie, Wayne Densch in Sanford

I saw the last showing of Annie at the Wayne Densch last Sunday for $20. The acting is always far inferior to the SSC productions (which are half the price). This one was no exception. The actor who played Warbucks was passable. I did wonder why they made him shave his head, but, thought it would be "modern" to exempt Annie from wearing a wig. I kept thinking it was Blossom and not Annie. The biggest problem is/was the acoustics. Most of the actors can't project to the back rows or over the orchestra and therefore need help. The sound system is so sub-standard that the feedback on some of the mics was horrendous and the levels were all over the place. Can't the Densch family pony up for a decent sound system and maybe some murals now that they have just cashed out of their distributing business? I would be embarrassed to have my name attached to this facility. The scenery budget seemed to have been blown on the Warbuck's mansion. It looked good. The rest looked ridiculous. The costumes looked like they were the best things in the actors closet. Most were inadequate. The guy who played Rooster didn't even have a pair of wing tips (just some hybrid sneakers). It was cute to see the children enjoying the show (onstage and in the audience). But, they can/should put out a better product. One thing you can count on is sub-zero refrigeration. Almost everyone I sat next to was frozen to death by the air conditioning.
