ABOUT THE SHOW
Seven generations have read the story, this September KW Productions will sing it!
Based on Louisa May Alcott’s life and how she came to write the critically acclaimed 1868 novel, LITTLE WOMEN follows the adventures of sisters Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March, each determined to live life on her own terms. This timeless, captivating story is brought to life in this glorious musical filled with adventure, heartache and everlasting love.
With a superbly talented cast and a powerful soaring score, this beloved tale of self-discovery and hope promises an “Astonishing” theatrical experience for the whole family.
