ADVENTURES IN GREEN GABLES is an original musical inspired by the 1908 classic novel, Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. This adaptation, written by RPL Director Marney Makridakis and her mother, Arthiss Kliever, traces not only Anne’s journey but also the lives of those forever changed by her boundless imagination, fiery spirit, and open heart.

Reserve Your Tickets - Donate What You Can
Ticket revenue from performances of our original musicals has historically been a lifeblood for Read Play Love. In the past, we sold tickets for $10-$15 for adults, and kids’ tickets for about half of that. But we now take reservations on a donation basis. This way, those who are able to donate more can do so, and if any family would find regular ticket prices cost prohibitive, they can donate what they can.
The donation model more closely reflects what RPL has always been: a heart-centered space that empowers children from all backgrounds to SHINE and do more than they think they can do, and brings families together to create an inclusive culture of love.
Read Play Love provides the space – physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially – but our Supporters keep it alive! Every single dollar helps us keep our doors open so we can continue doing what we do best!
