The award-winning new musical Little Women runs through February 3rd at The Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire, 10 Marriott Drive.  Based on the enormously popular 1869 novel by Louisa May Alcott, this enthralling production chronicles the joys and sorrows of the adventurous and captivating March sisters. 

Little Women follows the March sisters as they come-of-age in 19th Century New England.  While their father is serving as an army chaplain during the Civil War, their beloved mother, Marmee, is left to raise the four girls.  As each sister tries to find their place in the world, they inevitably take paths that lead them all in different directions; yet they never lose their sisterly bond that helps define who they are at heart.
A timeless and endearing tale of the power of family, friendship and love, Little Women now captures the hearts of a new generation.  With a beautiful score and rich storytelling, the show has become a new Broadway classic, featuring songs such as "Astonishing," "Days of Plenty" and "Delighted."

Little Women stars Heidi Kettenring as Jo March, previously seen at the Marriott Theatre as Fanny Brice in Funny Girl, and in Broadway in Chicago's Wicked as Nessarose.  Little Women features an all-star supporting cast, including Dara Cameron, Jon Cunningham, Kaitlin Fine, Rebecca Finnegan, Michael Gerhart, Megan Long, Abby Mueller, John Reeger, Stephen Schellhardt, Emily Long, Morgan Weed, Ann Whitney, Jarrod Zimmerman and Paula Scrofano as Marmee.
