Midland's 'Annie' a timeless experience for three Bay County actors

via MLive.com

It was like a time warp, Sarah Wesolek said, when she took her daughter Delaney to "Annie" rehearsals at the Midland Center for the Arts. The Monitor Township girl plays an orphan in the classic Depression-era tale of rags-to-riches; 27 years earlier, a 10-year-old Wesolek played the title role on the same stage. "It's such a thrill to watch Delaney," she said. "I'm watching her create her own memories." But Wesolek had plenty of memories to share herself when Katie Travis, who played Annie in 1997, came to a recent rehearsal to watch Betsy Miller take on the role in Center Stage Theatre's upcoming production.
