Adapted from L.M. Montgomery’s novel of the same name and directed by Kelly Page, Sylvia Ashby’s Anne of Green Gables follows the story of feisty orphan Anne Shirley. Adopted from an orphanage in Nova Scotia by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, Anne Shirely’s acclimation to life in Avonlea is not exactly smooth sailing. The Cuthbert siblings wanted a quiet boy to help out around their farm, but instead they receive Anne, a redheaded, freckle-faced, free spirit who turns their lives upside down with her quirky behavior.
Tickets for adults cost $10, tickets for seniors, military members and students are $8.
