Spokane’s Sophia, in the NY Times

Spokane’s Sophia Caruso, 9, pictured here in rehearsals for “The Miracle Worker” at Interplayers Professional Theatre, was in the pages of the NY Times on Monday. She was one of thousands of little girls auditioning for a new production of “Annie” in New York. Here’s the link to the story .

She made it through the first call-back, and has been asked to return for a second call-back, which is already a victory. She still has a lot of competition, as you can see from the interactive feature the NY Times did on 43 other girls (not Sophia) who were auditioning.

Sophia  played Helen Keller in the “The Miracle Worker” this spring.  She’s loaded with talent and moxie.

Go get ‘em, kid.
