That the Parliament congratulates 10-year-old Niamh Lee, of Kilmarnock, on landing the lead role in Annie, which is being staged by the legendary Glasgow theatre production company, Pantheon Theatre; understands that Niamh, who was just age nine at the time of the audition process, beat almost 400 other girls to land the leading role, and was cast as one of two Annies who will lead the run starting in January 2025; notes that this will be the third time in just over a year that Niamh will be appearing on the King's Theatre stage, having appeared in Oliver in April 2024, and Elf The Musical in November 2023, and commends the super talented Niamh for this outstanding achievement.
