Little Women

Comedy / adapted from the novel by Louisa M. Alcott / Casting: 5m 7f / Interior<p>The story of LITTLE WOMEN Louisa M. Alcott's famous novel is so well known and so well loved that it is hardly surprising that many attempts have been made to portray its characters upon the stage. None has yet been so successful however as this brilliant dramatization by Peter Clapham. The structure of the play faithfully covers that of the novel interweaving the lives of the March girls Meg Jo Beth and Amy and Laurie the boy next door as they grow up happily together yet the action is contained neatly in one set. All the overtones of gaiety and the undertones of sadness are here bringing the story completely to life in a way which is both accurate and dramatically satisfying.
