[NEohioPAL] Gilgamesh Taggett returns for rare Cleveland performance

[Joanna Hunkins via NEohioPAL]

He’s currently portraying Oliver Warbucks for the third year in the
international tour of *Annie* directed by Martin Charnin, but Gilgamesh
Taggett delighted audiences for more than a decade on local stages
including Beck Center, Cleveland Public Theatre and Cleveland Play House.

He'll join The Musical Theater Project this weekend for Behind the Musical:
Annie. Discover the backstory behind this feel-good American classic...that
almost didn't happen!

Leapin’ Lizards! Hard to believe it’s been 40 years since the darling
red-headed orphan debuted on Broadway, and that she took so many hard
knocks along the way. It was lyricist and director Martin Charnin’s idea to
make a family musical based on the famous comic strip—just about everyone
on Broadway thought he was crazy. Only when Mike Nichols stepped in as
producer was the show saved, and the trials and tribulations paid off in a
Tony Award-winning bonanza. We’ll include all of the songs from Charnin and
Charles Strouse’s terrific score including the iconic “Tomorrow,” “Maybe,”
“It’s a Hard-Knock Life,” “Easy Street” and “You’re Never Fully Dressed
Without a Smile.” Annie’s story—and our back story of this feel-good
musical’s creation—is filled with hope that the “sun’ll come out tomorrow.”
