Little Women

Pitlochry Festival Theatre and Watford Palace Theatre are set to join forces this summer to stage the première of Anne-Marie Casey’s new adaptation of Louise May Alcott’s much loved tale Little Women. Directed by Watford Palace Theatre’s Artistic Director Brigid Larmour, Little Women will première at Pitlochry Festival Theatre from 21 July – 29 September and then transfer to Watford Palace Theatre from 11-22 October. Published in 1868, Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women is one of the best loved novels of all time. By turns comic, dramatic, romantic, and tragic, the book was inspired by Alcott’s experiences growing up with her three sisters and is the story of the March family, mother Marmee and her daughters, beautiful Meg, strong-minded Jo, sensitive Beth, and spoilt Amy, as they struggle to survive in New England during the American Civil War. Anne-Marie Casey’s adaptation of the classic story offers an exciting theatrical experience, guaranteed to be a night (or afternoon!) filled with laughter, tears, and a lifting of the spirits.
