“Anne of Green Gables,” adapted by Joseph Robinette from the novel by L.M. Montgomery, will be performed by the Junior class.   

Marilla Cuthbert and her brother Matthew live in the farmlands of Prince Edward Island. The aging couple requests an orphan boy to help work their farm. Instead, they are mistakenly sent the high-spirited redhead named Anne Shirley. Knowing they are ill-equipped to raise a young girl, who is incapable of properly helping on their farm, Marilla attempts to send Anne back to the orphanage. With Matthew lobbying to keep Anne and despite warnings from a neighbor, Marilla ultimately agrees to let her stay at Green Gables. Almost immediately, Marilla’s fears come to pass as Anne insults Marilla's best friend, smacks the school's prize pupil with a slate, inadvertently gets her best friend, Diana, drunk on cherry cordial, and ends up with a broken leg after fulfilling a dare. However, despite these and other trying situations, Anne’s bright, charming, and resourceful personality, along with her irresistible imagination, helps her win the deep love and admiration of the whole town and especially Marilla and Matthew, who admit she is the best thing that ever happened to them and a true gift from God.
