- Annie will return to Broadway in a 2027 50th Anniversary production, reviving the Tony-winning musical
- Sam Pinkleton will direct the revival, coming off his run directing the Broadway hit Oh, Mary!
- The original musical introduced the song "Tomorrow" and has long served as a launching pad for generations of child actors playing plucky orphans

Why it matters: Pairing Sam Pinkleton — one of Broadway's current breakout directors thanks to Oh, Mary! — with the family-friendly Annie for its 50th anniversary gives a Tony-winning staple a director with fresh cultural cachet and continues the musical's tradition as a vehicle for young performers.
