Orange County's Chance Theater presents LITTLE WOMEN: THE MUSICAL 11/20 - 12/27
ANAHEIM HILLS, CA-Just in time for the holidays comes a tune-filled theatrical gift: LITTLE WOMEN: The Broadway Musical, presented by The Chance Theater November 20 – December 27. This Tony Award-nominated musical, adapted from children's literature and American history, is guaranteed to bring families together through song and dance this holiday season.
Fans of Chance productions of Anne of Green Gables will fall in love with LITTLE WOMEN: THE BROADWAY MUSICAL. The play follows the saga of the four March sisters and their beloved Marmee, who live at home in Concord, Massachusetts while the father is serving as a Union Army chaplain during the Civil War. The musical begins with the March sisters reminiscing about a Christmas past and "trying to find something to be happy about for Christmas.""Little Women is the second play in our series of family literature offerings that will be performed during the holidays," explains Chance Theater managing director Casey Long, who will also be directing the show. "Our audiences really enjoyed our staging of Anne of Green Gables for the past two years, and we're looking forward to offering another classic tale that will be perfect for the entire family."Recently named "Outstanding Arts Organization" for the second time by Arts Orange County, the Chance is proud to be wrapping up its Mainstage Series of Season 11 as one of the leading ensemble based theatre companies in Southern California.
