SHEFFIELD THEATRES ANNOUNCE FULL CASTING FOR IRVING BERLIN’S

ANNIE GET YOUR GUN

01492_annie_get_your_gun_press_portraitSheffield Theatres today announce full casting for their sharp shootin’ Christmas production, Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun.  This major new revival of the classic musical takes to the stage at the Crucible Theatre from Thursday 8 December – Saturday 14 January.

Paul Foster (Tell Me On A Sunday, Sweet Charity) directs Anna-Jane Casey, recently seen at the Crucible in Flowers For Mrs Harris, as Annie Oakley and Ben Lewis (Love Me Tender, Forbidden Broadway) as Frank Butler.  Nicolas Colicos (The Bodyguard, Sister Act) plays Buffalo Bill with Mike Denman (The Bodyguard, Matilda) as Pawnee Bill and Lauren Hall (Gypsy, Singin’ in the Rain) as Winnie Tate. Matthew Malthouse returns to Sheffield Theatres (My Fair Lady) as Foster Wilson, Timothy Quinlan(Mack & Mabel, Jersey Boys) plays Charlie Davenport, Cleve September (In The Heights) plays Tommy Keeler with Maggie Service (Red Dwarf, Call The Midwife) plays Dolly Tate and  Karl Seth, last seen on the Crucible stage in Hiawatha plays Chief Sitting Bull.  Completing the ensemble are Josh Andrews, Ronan Burns, Emma Caffrey, Matthew Croke, Omari Douglas, Rosie Fletcher, Melissa James, Jasmine Kerr, Natasha Mould, Jak Skelly, Leah West and Emma Woods (ensemble and Dance Captain).

Sharp shootin’, smart talkin’ Annie Oakley is a force to be reckoned with. But when she’s pitched against the charming, fiercely competitive Frank Butler, has she finally met her match?

Aimed straight at the heart, Irving Berlin’s sensational musical from the Golden Age of Broadway includes such classics as There’s No Business Like Show Business, Anything You Can Do and I Got The Sun In The Morning, as well as whip-cracking choreography from Sheffield favourite, Alistair David.

Tickets for Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun are on sale now and can be purchased from Sheffield Theatres’ Box Office in-person, by phone on 0114 249 6000 or online at sheffieldtheatres.co.uk and are priced from £20.00 (concessions available).  A transaction fee of £1.50 (£1.00 online) applies to all bookings made at the Box Office (excluding cash).
