Chris Daniels of The Show Report gushes over Anne of Green Gables

Take a look at a few quotes from this review below:

“whether you’re an “old friend” of Anne’s or meeting her for the first time, this play will solidify a lasting friendship with one of literature’s most unforgettable characters.”

“Emily Abeles (“A Chorus Line”), injecting plenty of fresh new life into a grand old part, not only possesses a lovely singing voice, but plenty of the requisite sweetness and light, combined with a sharp comic sensibility and well-timed flashes of harder-edged intensity. This Anne is fun to watch, but she’s also an Anne you don’t want to mess with.”

“Faithfully recreating the memorable events and characters from the brilliant novel”

“She has inspired many imitations: her more genuine literary descendants surely includes the sprightly Pippi Longstocking, not to mention Sailor Moon – girls who kick over the traces, but not too much.”

“a story full of empowerment, learning, frustration, trust, friendship, and eventually…love. Yet it’s those very characteristics and a sense of endearing innocence that make this show as gosh-darn appealing as its motor-mouthed heroine. So don’t let this one pass by!”

Ms. Abeles is a wonder”
