Anne of Green Gables - The Musical plays its first show in Toronto tonight at 7:30PM. To gear up for its Toronto run, the producers ran two very special literacy events in the Toronto Area. These great events got people familiar with both the classic book and the upcoming musical, and were great family fun!

It tells the story of freckle-faced Anne Shirley with her fiery temper, passion for melodrama and penchant for misadventures as she brings laughter, love and more than a little consternation to the village of Avonlea.
