A successful musical adaptation of the famous Canadian novel of the same name, with music and lyrics by Norman Campbell, Elaine Campbell, Don Harron and Mavor Moore.The musical is generally faithful to the book's plot, though it does omit some key subplots and elements like Anne's falling out with Mrs. Barry, Anne falling off the ridgepole, and Anne being rescued from the river by Gilbert. However, the show takes full advantage of the fact that it is a musical, turns nearly all the remaining elements up to eleven and establishes its own quirky identity with its offbeat sense of humour and classic Broadway sound. It enthusiastically lampoons the cultural attitudes of its period setting, and functions as a sort of Affectionate Parody of the source material.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Anne has been running continuously ever since 1965, and in March 2014, Guinness World Records recognized it as the longest-running annual musical theatre production in the world. | |

Black Comedy | |
| Anne of Green Gables (Theatre) / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: The musical makes great use of this at times (see Darker and Edgier and Deliberate Values Dissonance below), most notably Mr. Phillips' brief innuendo-laden solo during "If It Hadn't Been For Me" about "attending to the needs" of his female students. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Anne of Green Gables (Theatre) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: The pageant is a probably intentional example. It depicts "Eskimos" living in Canada during the ice age, followed by the "Red Indian" and seems to imply that Vikings were contemporary with French and British explorers. | |

Belligerent Sexual Tension | |
| Anne of Green Gables (Theatre) / int_75d6bf40 | comment |
Belligerent Sexual Tension: "I'll Show Him," Gilbert and Anne's duet about how they want to show one another up in an academic competition, is entirely fuelled with tension that tells the audience that they're destined to become an item. | |
