ALL AGES FAMILY CLASS FALL PLAY

"Little Women"

Adapted from the novel by Louisa May Alcott

Directed by Megan Piercey Monafu

Presented in Harold Shenkman Hall, December 4-6, 2026

Coming of age in the late 19th century, during civil war and in poverty, the four March sisters rise to the occasion, bringing joy and a fair share of mischief to their friends and family. Meg, Jo, Amy, and Beth follow their passions, face their disappointments, and fight each other and for each other on their way to becoming women. This story is a holiday tradition for many and will feature a young Christmas choir.
