"...REIMAGINED through a FRESH, MOVING, and contemporary-feeling narrative while still preserving those best-loved elements, it's LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE... Or -- in the case of the Finger Lakes Musical Theatre Festival -- it's LIGHTNING ONSTAGE as "Anne of Green Gables: A New Folk Rock Musical" comes to life in a VIBRANT, SPARKLING, and STARTINGLY JOYOUS production directed by Jenn Thompson...It has all the makings of a successful Broadway musical -- memorable tunes, empathetic characters, emotionally resonant scenes, and a happy ending. It's A SHOW THAT DESERVES GLOWING REVIEWS, SOLD-OUT PERFORMANCE, AND A BRIGHTER, BIGGER FUTURE!"

"LUMINOUS and POWERFUL...UTTERLY CHARMING...Director Jenn Thompson, scenic designer Wilson Chin and especially costume designer Tracy Christensen show us how to find time and place. The action takes place on a bare, raised stage, slightly tilted. Benches and wooden chairs can be converted into any needed props. Members of the large cast remain seated at the edge when not performing, reminding us that this is artifice."

- Syracuse New Times

"HILARIOUS and HEARTFELT...a folk-rock soundtrack with pastoral texture and muscle...between its lively performances and its contemporary touches, Vinson and O'Brien's "Anne of Green Gables" is nothing if not MEMORABLE and SIGNIFICANT...a thoroughly MODERN Anne."
