Tonight: ‘Little Women’ opens at the PAC

The show is a two-act play adapted from the 19th Century novel by Louisa May Alcott, a coming-of-age story about four sisters growing up in Civil War era New England.

Sumner High School drama will present “Little Women” at the Performing Arts Center beginning Nov. 15.

The show, directed by SHS Drama teacher Rachel Street, is a two-act play adapted from the 19th Century novel by Louisa May Alcott, a coming-of-age story about four sisters growing up in Civil War era New England. The tale was a critical and commercial success at the time of its release, covering unexplored (at the time) themes of womanhood in the face of tragedies large and small.
