Little Women

Four sisters, each with a distinctively different personality, offer an irresistible charm as we see them grow up to experience life’s joys and disappointments.  Gary Peterson selected many of the most charming and memorable scenes from the story to dramatize the magic that makes the book such an enduring classic.  Audiences of all ages will be highly entertained with this staging that radiates the timeless essence of a family that cares deeply for one another — the inspiration and pathos, the laughter and love.
