I can tell you that in my opinion, Anne of Green Gables will likely outsell the other two. I could be wrong on this - but family pleasing shows tend to do better (at least from what I have seen) than do more adult themed shows.

WOW! I can't believe some people think Laughter just dies and you see the ending coming, well of course you do, but its the journey that makes it all worth it.. Obviously it was directed by someone who didn't do any research into the time period of McCarthy'ism and the red scare and the time period, nor did they do any research in who these characters represented (Ira Stone was lovingly ripped of from Woody Allen among others).
 
I directed the show and for me it's a play about friendship and love and doing what is right and the way that those writers adored and loved max speaks to his heart and soul.
 
A beautiful show that while might offend some with language I think as long as you warn people you will have no problem with it. Do not apologize or edit for it, that is the way it was back then, remember Carol's monologue re: Speaking F*C&.
 
But, thats why its called art and everyone can have thier own feelings...

Settle down, people. Let's keep it civil on this board, please. Respect each other's opinions and they'll respect yours.

I directed _Anne of Green Gables_ by Sylvia ??? back in 1999.  Very good script.  Great for teen actors!  I would highly recommend it.  Some of the other versions are very cheesy.
