Little Women: Wartime Liverpool

Audiences asked and we responded! A retelling of Little Women for the stage is coming to Harlequin Theatre as our most highly voted production requested this year! Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy – four stories beautifully stitched together by Louisa May Alcott, holds a special place in many people’s hearts over many generations.

Harlequin Theatre is bringing this traditional story of family and love a little closer to home with the retelling taking place amidst the trials and tribulations of 1940 war-torn Liverpool. Father has gone to war, Marmee (Mum) must keep everyone safe amidst the impending blitz and the girls are determined to live life on their own terms – even when it means love and loss in the time of war.

This stunning production for stage keeps the heart of the March family at its core while honouring the 80th anniversary for the end of WWII, being both timely and timeless in this retelling.
