Step into the world of sisterhood, courage and ambition as the March sisters – tomboy Jo, beautiful Meg, sensitive Beth and spoilt Amy – navigate the challenges of the Civil War era, forging unbreakable bonds of love and family.

Inspired by author Louisa May Alcott’s own journey into womanhood, Little Women is as relevant today as it was at the time of its first release, proving that women can be bold, persistent, self-assured and the heroes of their own story.

Belinda Lang (Aunt March), Juliet Aubrey (Marmee), Natalie Dunne (Jo) and Tom Richardson (Brooke/Bhaer) star in the unmissable new version of Alcott’s classic tale filled with laughter, tears and a theatrical, heartwarming lifting of spirits.

And they will be joined on stage by Jade Oswald (Meg), Megan Richards (Beth), Jewelle Hutchinson (Amy) and Perry Williams (Laurie).
