Rag Dolly: the Raggedy Ann Musical

Putnam Playspace, February 6th-8th

COULD ONE POOR RAG DOLLY, PLAIN AS CAN BE

REALLY MAKE SOMEONE'S WISHES COME TRUE?

That’s right! The endeavors of the Raggedy Ann Revival Effort are no longer just dreams and make believe. Join us February 2025 at Ohio University’s Putnam Playspace for our first real-for-sure staged reading of the newly revised Rag Dolly script.

Come give us your feedback, hear the songs we’ve all come to love (performed alongside a live piano accompanist), and join us to celebrate four years of not taking “impossible” for an answer!

Feb 6th, 7th, & 8th @ 7:30, Feb 8th @ 2:00

Putnam Playspace, Ohio University - Athens, OH 45701

Hello!

We're noticing more people being interested in the Raggedy Ann fandom since the Amazing Digital Circus pilot released, so we thought we'd update our masterpost on where to find more Raggedy Ann media!

Books:

The first two and most well-known books are Raggedy Ann stories (1918) and Raggedy Andy stories (1920), which are in public domain and free to read online! Camel with the Wrinkled Knees (1924) (which the movie was loosely based on!) is on Internet Archive and available to read without an account. You can find many of the other books on there as well.

Cartoons:

The 1940's has Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy (1941), Suddenly It's Spring (1944), and The Enchanted Square (1947).

You've got the 1977 Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure of course.

The Chuck Jones holiday TV specials: Raggedy Ann and Andy in The Great Santa Claus Caper (1978) and Raggedy Ann and Andy in The Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile (1979).

Most episodes of The Adventures of Raggedy Ann and Andy (1988-1990) are in this playlist here, and you could probably find any missing ones on Dailymotion.

From the Target crossover we have the animated Snowden: Raggedy Ann & Andy's Adventure (1998) and the live-action ice-skating special The Snowden, Raggedy Ann and Andy Holiday Show (1998).

Music:

I've also got a playlist of all the albums I've found on YouTube or were uploaded by us, and there's many more of the older ones available on Archive. The old Will Wooden and Frank Luther ones are very charming.

Musical:

You can watch recovered archival footage of the full first production of the Raggedy Ann musical (1984), listen to the demo album (~1985), or the Broadway bootleg (1986)!

If you're interested in more, I'd recommend exploring the saved playlists on the RARE YouTube channel or the media tag on the Raggedy Ann Fandom Wiki.

We're a group of Raggedy Ann enthusiasts who got together to search for Raggedy Ann lost media (specifically the musical), but now we collect and archive all sorts of things from the franchise! Our ask box is always open and we love to find things people are looking for, or even just chat about headcanons and such.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY BELOVED❤️❤️

She's made my life so much more whimsical and happy ❤️

[clairyclue]

made these for me and @ragsandrascals

I'm so tired right now, but at least I did this for the folks at RARE (if anyone wants to print this and put it in their room, or spread it around the city, know that I support the idea 100%, and send me pictures if you actually print this, I'd love to see)

Here's the printable version, with information about RARE and a QR code from their Discord server. I hope you like it and spread the free advertising I made for RARE!! (Just don't litter your streets with posters)

The Raggedy Ann Rally happened recently (which if you didn’t know, that does exist)

And I watched the performance put on by RARE and it was amazing, so I thought I’d upload these old drawings I did based on the lost Broadway show! ✨❤️

Which btw you should check out the Raggedy Ann Broadway show, peak found media right there.

Something in the air, sail on ~

A little bit of musical fanart, AND a flashback art for my au.

Also, yes. Ann and Andy are HUGE compared to Marcella.

Revival Ann got a new wig! It’s of a brighter, thinner magenta yarn, as I felt the other was too dark and not easy to see in dimmer lighting, as well as just becoming fuzz when the fringe was cut. I think this one suits her much better:)
