Krakowski played Jenna on 30 Rock. She's currently in Dickinson and Schmigadoon, and hosts Name That Tune on Fox. Krakowski's Broadway credits include She Loves Me, Nine, Grand Hotel and Starlight Express.
Taraji P. Henson plays Miss Hannigan on the NBC production and Harry Connick Jr. is Daddy Warbucks. Nicole Scherzinger plays Grace and Celina Smith handles Annie.
Annie Live! will be executive produced by Robert Greenblatt, Neil Meron and Alex Rudzinsky, with Lear deBessonet and Alex Rudzinski sharing the directing duties.
