For a fun, family-friendly event, locals may want to check out Ever After Production’s adaptation of the 2005 Broadway musical “Little Women” at The Colonnade March 16-17.
From left, Lindsay Davidson as “Meg,” GinnyBeth Gadd as “Jo,” Sara Gard as “Miss March,” Laura Perry as “Amy” and Sonia Rippe as “Beth” act out a scene from “Little Women.”This musical rendition of the classic novel will take audiences back in time to the Civil War era as author Louisa May Alcott described in her semi-autobiographical work.
“We are connecting a modern audience with a classic story,” director Jonathan Humble said.
Humble stays true to the book’s theme and story line as he brings in the audience to follow the adventures of the four March sisters as they go through a journey of love, loss and personal discovery.
“We follow the epic journey of Jo March, played by GinnyBeth Gadd, who wants to make something of herself and leave her mark,” he said. “Each of us go through this growing up and we wanted to relate that through the script.”
