Anne Of Green Gables

The classic tale of an orphan girl who rises from destitution to happiness in the farm country entirely by virtue of her pluck and personality. Originating in Canada, the play left capacity audiences there to journey to London, where it opened to acclaim. "The book has been made into a neatly packaged family show, sentimental, tuneful and blending gentle bucolic humor with old world pathos.... A pleasant atmosphere is created from the start; the songs are in neat harmony."-- The Stage, London.

Avenue Q

9 out of 10 stars (12 votes)

AVENUE Q is the story of Princeton, a bright-eyed college grad who comes to New York City with big dreams and a tiny bank account. He soon discovers that the only neighborhood in his price range is Avenue Q; still, the neighbors seem nice. There's Brian the out-of-work comedian and his therapist fianceé Christmas Eve; Nicky the good-hearted slacker and his roommate Rod -- a Republican investment banker who seems to have some sort of secret; an Internet addict called Trekkie Monster; and a very cute kindergarten teaching assistant named Kate. And would you believe the building's superintendent is Gary Coleman?!? (Yes, that Gary Coleman.) Together, Princeton and his newfound friends struggle to find jobs, dates, and their ever-elusive purpose in life.

Avenue X

7 out of 10 stars (3 votes)

This a cappella doo wop musical takes place in Brooklyn in 1963. The Italian Americans stay on one side of the street and the blacks on the other. Volatile issues and effectively nostalgic rock and roll history emerge when two youthful singers from different sides of the street put together an act for a talent show at the legendary Fox Theater. Twenty four musical numbers affectionately recreate the genuine sounds of the era. "A sweet nostalgia trip.... The exuberant doo wop vocalizing turns out to be ... the brightest thing."---N.Y. Daily News. "Think of West Side Story to a doo wop beat.... It is a real pleasure."--- N.Y. Post. "The preview I attended was packed with young people who squealed, screamed, whooped, whinnied, laughed and applauded." New Yorker.
