Rosebud: Anne of Green Gables

A Musical About Your Favourite Freckle-Faced Heroine with Dreams as Big as her Spirit

Home, a place Anne Shirley has always dreamt of finding. Though she isn’t the strapping farm hand her new family is expecting, her surprise arrival brings an unmatched abundance of spirit to the Cuthbert farm. Will Anne’s vibrant character, imaginative mind, and love of adventure win the hearts of Marilla, Matthew, Gilbert Blythe, and the citizens of Avonlea? Based on the novel by L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables is a musical story of love and belonging for all ages.

The cost for the trip is $100 and includes the bus, the theatre, a buffet lunch with tea a coffee, and all gratuities.  Pop and alcoholic beverages are an EXTRA

PARKING INFORMATION

We have acquired  new parking arrangements for our bus trips, so you will need to pay attention when you register for a trip as to the parking location.  Southcentre Mall has kindly agreed to let us park there on a case by case basis.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Acadia drive has kindly agreed to let us use a portion of their parking lot.  Both have given us specific spots where we are to park.  Participants in a bus tour will be sent a map of where to park at these venues.  Where possible we encourage people to carpool to minimize the number of cars
