The Love Story of Anne

The Love Story of Anne is 1936 Australian play by Frank Harvey. Unlike the majority of Harvey's stage plays it had an Australian setting. Harvey later said the play "did well".

Harvey was reportedly working on it in 1933 under the title Anne Chisholm.

The play made its debut in Australia 1936. The performance was given for charity. The play was highly publicised due to Harvey's reputation and the fact the cast were under contract to JC Williamson's Ltd. The Sydney Morning Herald reviewed it saying "it had many points to recommend It, even if the play itself fell far below Mr. Harvey's best standard of theatrical craftsmanship."

The play had reportedly been produced in England starring Betty Bowden.
