What is this rumor I've heard that "Annie" is being revived soon with "One Day at a Time"'s Mackenzie Phillips as Lily? Is this just a wild invention? That's the ONLY casting I heard of--since when is Lily the most important role to secure in that show?

I ask in all honesty/What would life be?/Without a song and a dance, what are we?/So I say "Thank you for the music/For giving it to me."

I heard that too. A bit long in the tooth, eh? Isn't her husband the producer or director or something?

Well, whole productions of GREASE have been built around Teen Angel or Miss Lynch.

And, in the original Broadway ANNIE, Lily was no spring chicken.

Any chance they're rehearsing at the New 42nd Street Studios? My mom swears she saw Mackenzie Phillips come out of there while she was waiting for me this morning.

Yep--My friend Michelle is in the ensemble. I think Mackenzie might actually be okay. Since her ODAAT days, she's been doing ALOT of theatre all over the country...Same Time Next Year, Love Letters, etc...so maybe she's picked up alot of skills...she's had the stage time god knows
