In 1982, Allison Smith lit up the stage on the British program The Oxford Road Show with a powerful performance of “It’s the Hard Knock Life” from Annie. At the time, she held the title of the longest-running Broadway Annie, playing the role for nearly three years. Her sharp, energetic delivery perfectly captured the grit and resilience of the show’s orphan girls — just as the original staging intended. 🎭✨ Via: The Oxford Road Show (1982) — #Annie #BroadwayHistory #MusicalTheatre #AllisonSmith

3.1M Commanders on Instagram: "Allison Smith began her Broadway career at age nine in “Evita,” then at ten took the role of Annie in the musical “Annie” in 1980. She performed the lead for nearly three years, exceeding 1,000 shows, making her the youngest and longest-running star of the production. In “Annie,” Smith famously sang “It’s the Hard Knock Life,” a song depicting orphans’ tough lives under Miss Hannigan. Her 1982 live performance captured raw frustration, resonating with audiences."
