On this What’s Up! podcast with Features Editor Becca Martin-Brown, meet Kailey Miller, who stepped into the role of Miss Hannigan in Arkansas Public Theatre’s production of “Annie" with one night of rehearsal. They're joined by APT veteran Caity Church, who portrays Grace Farrell, Daddy Warbucks’ right-hand woman for some lively chatter.
