From the theater’s website: “Louisa May Alcott’s treasured classic, 'Little Women' tells the enduring story of the March family and their four daughters: romantic Meg, shy Beth, willful Amy and, of course, fiery and independent Jo. Through the intertwining lives of the sisters, we see the familiar hardships, heartbreak, humor and humility of these passionate and unique young women. Little Women enchants new generations with the regional premiere of this new adaptation.” Kate Hamill’s adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s
Little Women (Nov. 11-Dec. 3) was planned for Cincy Shakes’ canceled 2020-2021 season, so it’s good to see it finally being staged. Hamill is the go-to playwright for theatrical adaptations of classic works. Her rendition for
Pride and Prejudice had just opened in March 2020 when the shutdown cut it short.
