BRAWLEY, Calif.—The classic Christmastime play, “Annie,” was presented by the North County Coalition for the Arts at Palmer Performing Arts Center here in May, with local lead actors Georg Scott as “Daddy Warbucks,” who shaved his head just for the part, and 11-year-old Molly Wilson as “Annie.”

But, as any theater aficionado knows, all the magic begins back stage. Most of the stage crew consists of high school students from the Imperial Valley Regional Occupational Program under the instruction of Jason Contreras, known fondly as Mr. C by his students and colleagues.

The following video is a behind-the-scenes look at the production.

  1. Yea there should definitely be more plays available. Good job Clarina, I really like the video.

  2. Great video! I couldn’t come down to see my sisters in the performance as I was away at college doing my own show. Congrats to everyone who made Annie possible! Bring more attention to Imperial Valley arts!
