NEW JERSEY PREMIERE |
| Set during the Civil War, LITTLE WOMEN is the gripping story of the March sisters – aspiring author Jo, romantic Meg, pretentious Amy, kind-hearted Beth – and their beloved Marmee, at home in Concord, Massachusetts while their father is away serving as a Union Army chaplain. Apart from the 1933 George Cukor-Katharine Hepburn film version, few of the prior adaptations of Louisa May Alcott’s classic 1869 semi-autobiographical novel have left much of a lingering impression. But this new Tony Award-nominated musical starring Sutton Foster as “Jo” quickly became a “richly sentimental favorite with family-friendly appeal” [New York Newsday] |
