About the Show
The musical Little Women takes the beloved book by Louisa May Alcott and weaves beautiful music into it. As a fan of the book, I was excited to have the opportunity to direct the musical, but unfortunately it was not good timing. Rehearsals were under way when we started hearing about Covid-19, but we just continued with the production, hoping everything would be fine. As we know now, it wasn’t. The show was supposed to run for ten performances, but after our third performance we had to shut down. While the run did not go as planned, I am very grateful for the experience I had working on this show. I had an amazing group of actors and learned so much from the process. I am very grateful we at least got to dazzle audiences for three performances, even though we would have liked to have completed our full run.
