LITTLE WOMEN

by Mark Adamo • January 23, 26, 29, 31, 2016

Mark Adamo's operatic adaptation of the beloved classic LITTLE WOMEN has been a remarkable success, including a PBS "Great Performances" television special in 2001, and much critical acclaim. The LARGER THAN LIFE personality and the emotional journey of irrepressible, outspoken Jo March makes this new production, starring our Resident Artists, a must-add to your season plans. Capacity is limited; order now. 

• Sung in the original English with projected English titles
• All performances at CAPA Theater

Laurie (Adam Bonanni) and Jo (Corrie Stallings) – best friends, but “it’s complicated”

Jo (Corrie Stallings) does not like what she hears when Brooke (Brian Vu) proposes to Meg (Laurel Semerdjian)

Aunt Cecilia (Leah de Gruyl) disapproves of Brooke (Brian Vu) and Meg’s (Laurel Semerdjian) marriage while Amy (Claudia Rosenthal) looks on

Brooke and Meg exchange their wedding vows, the same ones which Meg’s parents used; left to right- Gideon March (Daniel Teadt), Brooke (Brian vu), Meg (Laurel Semerdjian), Alma March (Kara Cornell)

Mr. Dashwood (Daniel Teadt), publisher at The Daily Volcano , reads Jo’s (Corrie Stallings) manuscript while she enthusiastically demonstrates a key scene

Brooke (Brian Vu) and Meg (Laurel Semerdjian) are now the parents of newborn twins. Their reaction is perfectly understandable.

Jo (Corrie Stallings) is moved by Friedrich Bhaer’s (Matthew Scollin) powerful rendition of “Kennst du das Land?”

Jo (Corrie Stallings) and her dying sister Beth (Adelaide Boedecker) console each other
