  • Best- Loved Broadway Musical Annie Thrills Hong Kong
    For Immediate Release BEST- LOVED BROADWAY MUSICAL ANNIE THRILLS HONG KONG Hong Kong (31 May 2012) One of the best-loved family musicals of all time, ANNIE, opens in Hong Kong today for a limited run, through 24 June 2012, at the Lyric Theatre, Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. This legendary Broadway and West End hit comes to Hong Kong direct from a highly successful UK tour, and features a cast and company of 52, including the ever-popular British comedy star Su Pollard as the scheming gin-soaked Miss Hannigan, and UK stage and screen veteran David McAlister as Oliver Warbucks, whose heart is softened by the young orphan Annie, played alternately by three talented young actresses from the UK. Members of the media attending a Press Preview earlier today were charmed by the show’s cast, including several of Hong Kong’s talented young actresses, ranging in age from seven to 13, who were chosen from a pool of 250 hopefuls for the coveted roles of Annie’s fellow orphans at the New York City Municipal Orphanage. During the preview, the cast performed three songs, including A New Deal for Christmas, Easy Street and It's The Hard-Knock Life. “ANNIE is one of the major productions Lunchbox is bringing to Hong Kong in the Year of the Dragon,” says Producer James Cundall, Chief Executive of Lunchbox Theatrical Productions. “I am absolutely delighted to be able to bring not only such a legendary Broadway musical to this city, but a cast of such caliber as well. Many of them have never been to Hong Kong before and are hugely excited to be in this vibrant city.

Adopted in 1998, the Good Friday Agreement has managed to curb hostilities, though sporadic violence still occurs and antagonism remains pervasive between many Nationalists and Unionists. Strong political bargaining through back-channel negotiations and facilitation from international and third-party interlocutors all contributed to what is today referred to as Northern Ireland’s peace process and the resulting Good Friday Agreement. Although the Northern Ireland peace process and the Good Friday Agreement are often touted as a model of conflict resolution for other intractable conflicts in the world, the implementation of the Agreement has proven to be challenging.
