SHOW DESCRIPTION
Based on Louisa May Alcott’s life, Little Women follows the adventures of sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America.
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
JO MARCH – Our story’s protagonist. Passionate, adventurous, and brave. She has the idea of writing Little Women and eventually becomes engaged to Professor Bhaer.
AMY MARCH – The youngest, most energetic sister with a rather pompous air about her. She later marries Laurie. Will double as Troll.
MEG MARCH – The world-weary, yet hopeful, oldest sister who yearns for a great life. She marries John and has twins with him. Will double as Clarissa.
BETH MARCH – The second youngest sister who tragically dies of Scarlet Fever. Peace-maker, lover, and an optimist who is always encouraging her sisters to dream. Will double as Rodrigo II.
MARMEE MARCH – The girls’ mother. She is the strong backbone of the family, who is courageous in spite of the difficult odds she faces. Will double as Hag.
AUNT MARCH – A formidable, over-bearing matron and great-aunt to the March sisters. The wealthy socialite in town. Will double as Mrs. Kirk.
MR. LAURENCE – Laurie’s grandfather, a wealthy old man who lives next door to the March family. Although old Mr. Laurence often seems crabby or intimidating, he’s actually a very compassionate, thoughtful person. Will double as the Knight.
LAURIE LAURENCE – The bright-eyed boy-next-door with considerable charm. He loves Jo but later falls in love with Amy. Will double as Rodrigo.
JOHN BROOKE – Laurie’s tutor and a rather stiff man; shows very little emotion. He later marries Meg and changes. Will double as Braxton.
PROFESSOR BHAER – German Professor who exemplifies proper manners. He is a boarder in Mrs. Kirk’s boarding house and eventually falls in love with Jo.
