Granbury Theatre Company Presents ANNE OF GREEN GABLES Kicks Off Broadway On The Brazos Season
The story was adapted by R.N. Sanberg from the novel by L.M. Montgomery.
Granbury Theatre Company will kick off its Broadway on the Brazos season with “Anne of Green Gables” on January 19-February 4, 2024, at the historic Granbury Opera House in Downtown Granbury.
According to Dramatic Publishing, the story was adapted by R.N. Sanberg from the novel by L.M. Montgomery: “Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew request an orphan boy to help work their farm. They are mistakenly sent the high-spirited red-head named Anne Shirley. Knowing they are ill-equipped to raise a child, Marilla attempts to send Anne back to the orphanage. With Matthew lobbying to keep Anne, Marilla ultimately agrees to let her stay at Green Gables. The trials and tribulations Marilla fears come to pass as Anne insults Marilla's best friend, "loses" Marilla's most cherished brooch, smacks the school's prize pupil with a slate, and inadvertently gets her best friend, Diana, drunk on raspberry cordial. She also turns out to be bright, charming, resourceful and full of irresistible imagination. Marilla and Matthew admit she is the best thing that ever happened to them, and Anne comes to understand she is a loved, worthwhile person.”
