Larry Moore
as Oliver Warbucks
Larry Moore (Daddy Warbucks) is playing a role that is the perfect blend of art and real life—he already has his own “Grace” (Rachel) and “Annie” (Lyric) at home. A proud HLT member for eight years with over 30 years of experience in theater, education, and public speaking, Larry is excited to share his love of storytelling, fatherhood, and community through this role. And as Warbucks himself might say: if tomorrow he’s an apple seller too, he doesn’t need anything but you!

Dawn Smith
as Grace Farrell
Dawn Smith (Grace Farrell) cannot wait to bring to you Grace Farrell on stage. This is a special moment for Dawn because she began her theater career at 9 yrs old as an orphan in this production. She dreamed one day to be Grace when she got older and now it is here!! Dawn has been a member of HLT for several seasons and has loved the roles she has been able to preform. She has just recently brought Glinda the Good, Cinderella, and a musical Snowbird this past HLT season. Other memorable roles have been Randa in Savannah Sipping Society and Donna in Mamma Mia! Dawn is also a member of Key of 3 and loves working as a preschool teacher. She wants you to enjoy the magic of Annie.
