We’ve got Annie! Celebrity Parents reunited the orphans from the movie Annie for the first time since they were little girls! Shot on location at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, NJ (which also doubled as Daddy Warbucks’ Mansion!), Aileen Quinn “Annie”, Toni Ann Gisondi “Molly”, and Rosanne Sorrentino “Pepper” gathered together for the Celebrity Parents Special Edition Annie Reunion Issue!
Annie is a 1982 American musical film adapted from the Broadway musical of the same name by Charles Strouse, Martin Charnin and Thomas Meehan, which in turn is based on Little Orphan Annie, the 1924 comic strip by Harold Gray. The film was directed by John Huston, scripted by Carol Sobieski, and stars Albert Finney, Carol Burnett, Ann Reinking, Tim Curry, Bernadette Peters, Geoffrey Holder and Edward Herrmann. Set during the Great Depression, the film tells the story of Annie, an orphan from New York City who is taken in by America’s richest billionaire Oliver Warbucks. Filming took place for six weeks at Monmouth University in New Jersey.
