Musical heroine joining Laurie in a song (5)
I believe the answer is:
annie
This could be a double definition.
'musical heroine' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'laurie in a song' is the second definition.
'annie' can be an answer for 'laurie' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not certain of the 'in a song' bit.
'joining' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. It may belong to one of the definitions.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for annie that I've seen before include "Little Ophan .....; also a musical" , "Famous musical about orphan girl" , "-- Oakley (Wild West)" , "Miss Laurie" , "Musical about markswoman" .)
