Producers Barry and Fran Weissler are continuing a tradition they began when they produced Broadway's Grease!: Inviting kids who are fighting cancer to a Broadway show.
Children and their families from the Ronald McDonald — the residence where kids being treated for cancer can be near their families — will attend the Dec. 24 matinee of Annie Get Your Gun at the Marquis Theatre and get a post-show meal catered by McDonald's.
Annie Get Your Gun stars Cheryl Ladd and Patrick Cassidy, and other cast members, will meet and greet the group of 50 children.
