The pandemic has made producing a live TV musical even more challenging. “We’re observing all these protocols and being very, very careful,” said Robert Greenblatt, the former NBC executive who is producing Annie Live! “In rehearsals, the cast is singing and dancing and huffing and puffing in masks all day long.” Noting that anybody testing positive was out of the show, Greenblatt added: “When we set this show up at NBC nine months ago, we thought COVID would be so far in the rearview mirror.” ALSO: Harry Connick Jr. admits it was "shocking" when he first saw his bald Daddy Warbucks look.
