Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert advertise for a boy to help on their farm. Due to a misunderstanding Anne Shirley arrives instead. To stay at Green Gables would be a dream come true for Anne, but she just keeps getting into scrapes. She dyes her hair green, accidentally gets her best friend drunk and smashes her slate over the head of the handsomest boy in school…
Impetuous, rebellious and gloriously red-headed, Anne is one of literature's most appealing heroines, brought faithfully and imaginatively to life in Emma Reeves' new stageplay for all the family.
