' Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm ' by Kate Douglas Wiggin
Adapted as a serial play in five parts by H. Oldfield Box
1—' Rebecca Goes to Riverboro '
Production by Josephine Plummer
This classic American story, first published in 1903, and reprinted nearly every year since, was probably the first of a great number of books about the little orphan or near-orphan girl or boy who is sent away to be brought up by an aunt. Rebecca Randall leaves her home, her harassed mother (she has no father), and her six brothers and sisters, to go to stay with her Aunt Miranda and her Aunt Jane at the Brick House at Riverboro. This visit is to be ' the making of her,' but what with Aunt Miranda's severity and the strangeness of leaving home, poor Rebecca thinks differently.
