Whoopi Goldberg – Shares Her Joy On New Role Premiering This Christmas

According to Broadway World, ‘The View’ host Whoopi Goldberg will be starring in a new adaptation of the musical ‘Annie,’ which is set to debut at The Theater at Madison Square Garden this Winter. She will be playing the role of Miss Hannigan.

While the show will kick off on Dec. 4, 2024 and run for five weeks until Jan. 5, 2025, Goldberg is slated to begin appearing as Miss Hannigan in the musical from Dec. 11.

“I love the theatre, and in my mind, there is no better way to spend the holidays than to get back on stage,” Goldberg said. “I can’t wait to step in to the delicious role of Miss Hannigan and perform for the greatest audiences in the world – in my hometown of New York City.”

Miss Hannigan is the main antagonist in Annie. Described as the “authoritarian head” of an orphanage, Miss Hannigan hates children, especially Annie.

“ANNIE is a celebration of family and what can happen when you hold on to hope above all else. We’re delighted to kick off our new 2024-2025 tour at the iconic Chicago Theatre—arriving with a little ray of sunshine when we all need it most.” said Tony Award-winning composer Charles Strouse. “It is also a dream come true to bring ANNIE back home to New York City for the first time in ten years, just in time for the holidays. And having the iconic Whoopi Goldberg join the company and make her first appearance ever in a production of ANNIE is a gift to us all! I know Martin and Tom would be thrilled, too.”

This Christmas, Annie is coming back to remind us to hold our chins up because “the sun will come out tomorrow.”
