This weekend Elm Grove community theatre group Sunset Playhouse is looking to cast for  its upcoming production of Annie.

The show is being directed by seasoned musical theatre talent Ray Jivoff, who most recently putting one of the best performances of this past season in Skylight Theatre’s production of Adding Machine. Fresh from having directed Little Shop of Horrors at Marquette (which opens this coming weekend) Jivoff is going to be working in Elm Grove with the Sunset on its production of the classic musical.
