About this event
This theatrical stage version of "Anne of Green Gables" adapt L.M. Montgomery’s classic 1908 novel into heartwarming comedy-drama centered on a talkative, imaginative orphan sent by mistake to a farming brother and sister, from "Green Gables". This is a humerous family-friendly play set in the early 1900's, with a large cast of local characters from the LUHS Drama Club. "Anne of Green Gables" will take stage on Friday, Nov. 6 @ 7pm, Saturday, Nov. 7 @ 7pm and Sunday @ 2pm at Lakeland Union High School Auditorium. Admission: Donations encouraged and appreciated.
Who's playing
The cast is drawn from the Lakeland Union High School Drama Club, with a large group of local characters on stage. The stage version follows Montgomery's novel closely, and it leans on comedy as much as on the heart of the story.
What to expect
Expect a comedy-drama with a light, family-friendly tone, set on a farm in the early 1900s. The show plays in the high school auditorium, which was built in the 1950s and has since been upgraded with new lighting and sound. The story runs on Anne's talk and her imagination, so the dialogue carries much of the show.
Why go
A school production of a classic gives a familiar story a fresh local cast. The play is built on comedy and suits a mixed-age group. For a homegrown night of theater in Minocqua, it is an easy pick.
