WHO: Maureen McGovern and the First National Touring Company WHAT: Little Women: The Musical WHEN: Now through April 23rd HOW MUCH: $24 - $69 + $2 restoration fee

The musical incarnation of Louisa May Alcott's novel arrived at the Cadillac Palace Theatre Tuesday night.

The national tour of Little Women, starring Maureen McGovern, will play Chicago from January 24th through February 5th, 2006

Something old, something new? Sure, Little Women has that. Borrowed and blue, that as well. It's a new show that's old-fashioned, with a score that's not all that original and bits of blue here and there, mainly represented in the period-lace that frames the brightly lit stage.
