The Arts: Chilliwack Arts Council Presents 'Little Women'

By on August 3, 2010

The Chilliwack Arts Council is presenting ‘Little Women’, a musical by Allan Knee, lyrics by Mindi Dickstein, and music by Jason Howland Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Based on Louisa May Alcott’s classic 1869 semi-autobiographical novel, it focuses on the four March sisters – brassy, tomboy-like, aspiring writer Jo, romantic Meg, pretentious Amy, and kind-hearted Beth – and their beloved Marmee, at home in Concord, Massachusetts while the family patriarch is away serving as a Union Army chaplain during the Civil War. Intercut with the vignettes in which their lives unfold are several recreations of the melodramatic short stories Jo writes in her attic studio.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday shows, Aug 5 – 8 at 7:30pm and Sunday at 2:00pm

Tickets:
$15.50 Adults
$12.50 Seniors/Students
