    Description

    This is a rare ticket presentation folder which was designed to hold the tickets for the out-of-town tryouts of the CHARLES STROUSE, MARTIN CHARNIN and THOMAS MEEHAN musical comedy "ANNIE 2" at
    the
    John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
    in
    Washington, D.C
    . (The first attempt at a
    sequel
    to "ANNIE",
    Annie 2: Miss Hannigan's Revenge
    , opened at
    the
    John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
    in
    Washington, D.C.
    in December 1989 to universally disastrous reviews. Extensive reworking of the script and score at the Goodspeed Opera House proved futile, and the project ended before reaching Broadway. In 1993, a second attempt, entitled
    Annie Warbucks
    ,
    opened at the
    Off-Broadway
    Variety Arts Theatre, where it ran for 200 performances.) .....
