Little Women
by Kate Hamill
based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott
directed by Sarna Lapine
featuring Kate Hamill as "Meg"
In the spring, Primary Stages will welcome back KATE HAMILL, playwright and star of our hit production of Pride and Prejudice, with her fresh new take on Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel of love and duty, Little Women. Jo March doesn't want to be like other girls; in fact, she's not even sure that she wants to be a girl. Jo is ambitious, rough around the edges, headstrong, and yearns for a future she can’t yet articulate. As the nation is torn apart by civil war, Jo and her sisters struggle with what it means to grow up. Gender roles, political beliefs, poverty, and even love itself threaten to break family ties, as the March sisters try to reconcile their identities with society’s demands. How do you stay true to yourself when the world wants you to become a perfect little woman?
Post-performance talkbacks led by a member of the artistic staff will follow performances on Thursday, June 6 and Tuesday, June 11.
