- Live for the first time since 1986, come experience a selection of songs from the previously lost musical!
The Raggedy Ann Revival Effort's performance of a showcase of songs from the Rag Dolly musical, presented by RARE Theatricals LLC. The Rag Dolly Revue is also the public debut of new music arrangements and lyric revisions, with permission from the Raposo estate to use this performance as a test before discussing proper workshops. This is the first step towards our goal of a full revival.
The show was part of the festivities taking place during the Raggedy Ann Rally in Arcola, Illinois, a yearly get-together of Raggedy Ann fans that has been gathering since 1989. The organizers are very supportive of our Revival Effort and helping us get this performance off the ground.

This is absolutely incredible!!, We will be getting this show back on Broadway in no time!!!
Everyone’s singing sounds amazing! I got goosebumps!
I will never get over the sheer power of what a group of dedicated people can accomplish by being total nerds over an obscure piece of media. Keep it up the great work, y'all! I'm rooting for you! :D
Really impressive!

Hello! Kandi from Haus of Raggedy here! I just wanted to say that this was absolutely incredible! I wish I was there but I’m happy I got to see it virtually anyway! (This inspired me to do more Raggedy song cover as well hehe)

YESSSSS!!! What a way to show off a legendary ragdolly!
The way im actually more axcited and anticipating this than any other major studio project is just to show how fantastic y'all are! Can't wait for the final product!!!
AHHH THIS IS SO GOOD, YOUR SINGING WAS SO GOOD
Actually intrigued to see it revived like I'm new to Rageddy ann and I checked it out when finding out that ragatha from tadc was inspired by raggedy ann and I was soo into it and started looking to the history of raggedy ann and its pretty impressive people still wanted to keep it alive

@@helloladder You're welcome! If ya don't mind me asking where did you get it?
@@Rodents916 either ebay or Etsy I believe
@@raggedyannrevivaleffort okay, thank you!
THE SILLIES
ah lovely!!
yasss
OMGGGGG
where do y'all get your cool raggedy ann clothing 😭
They're handmade! Both the dresses were found on either etsy or ebay. Grey's shirt was made by Brooklyn, who sells their handmade Raggedy Ann shirts made from vintage bedsheets.
@@raggedyannrevivaleffortthank you for answering!
i found a super cute blouse now i can have some ragann clothes of my own !!!!
How did you do this?
Lots of work done by lots of dedicated people!
1) research. The sheet music for the production wasn't available for purchase, so it involved contacting multiple different archives and the composer's family to build a use-able connection.
2) legal approval. contacting the composer's family to obtain permission to perform the songs.
3) composing. cleaning up the sheet music and making new arrangements that could be performed by our single pianist and limited cast
4) producing. calling around to find a good venue and work out a time. making sure we had all the performers in place and able to make it. hiring the pianist. crowdfunding to pay for both the venue and the accompanist.
5) rehearsals. printing out scripts and sheet music. making sure everyone knew what the plan was
6) advertising! so people knew to show up! getting flyers and programs printed
7) actually doing it! arriving at the venue, figuring out the sound setup and seating. rehearsing a couple times. telling the ushers what to do. and just knowing that we had everything preparing us for that moment so we could just go for it.
@@raggedyannrevivaleffort I think you’ve inspired me to you the same. What do you think of a small concert for Disney’s Der Glöckner von Notre Dame?
@@creativepuppetry1366 It's definitely worth a try! Though you may have some issues with the licensing concerning Disney.
We were able to produce the Rag Dolly concert with approval because the rights were never bought by a larger company after the initial contract ran out. By all accounts we could dig up, the abandoned rights returned solely to the family of the artists. That makes them a lot easier to work with than a larger company like Disney.
