"Director Casey Long's staging and a well-chosen cast
of 14 find the pulse of the material early, then ratchet up the contrasting tones, ranging from hilarity to heartbreak, in Anne's misadventures as she tries to adjust to her
new life, home, classmates
and community."
-- Orange County Register

"Reminds us that any season, not just this Christmas one,
is the season for a compelling story of courage and inspiration, a heroine with which we can identify and for whom we can root, a good ensemble effort, and a simple, effective stage."
-- Huffington Post

"Yes, the princess of perk
(also known as Anne Shirley)
is back in Anaheim Hills—in a return visit to the Chance that is certain to delight those who made the children’s musical such a smash hit in
2007 and 2008."
