MONROE - Louisa May Alcott's novel, "Little Women," will be presented by the Monroe Theatre Guild later this month.
The "Little Women" play was written by Peter Clapham. The performance is the story of four sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy March, growing up in New England during the Civil War. The play spans the events of one year in the March family home, while Father is away at the war. The girls and their mother do their best to remain steadfast in Father's absence, but frightening hardships arise that threaten the happiness of this loving, close knit family.
A cast of area women and men, between the ages of 12 and 70, will present five performances in one weekend in the MTG Theater.
Evening performances are at 7:30 p.m. March 26, March 27 and March 28. Afternoon matinees are at 2 p.m. March 28 and March 29.
Adult ticket prices range from $11 through $15, with a special student price of $8. Reserved seating tickets are available at www.monroetheatre.com or by calling 608-325-1111.
The Courthaus Quilters Quilt Guild of Monroe will hold a small quilt show in the MTG lobby before each performance of "Little Women." The Quilters' 2015 raffle quilt, a Civil War-era commemorative quilt, will be on display with a collection of vintage, handmade quilts.
