Hillcrest Village Community Players will present Little Women: The Musical, a heartwarming adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's beloved novel. Opening Thursday, February 27, 2025 at St. Matthew's United Church located at 729 St Clair Ave W., Toronto, this inspiring production follows the lives of the March sisters as they navigate love, ambition, and resilience.
Directed by Krista Mihevc, the production brings to life the enduring story of Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy through soaring melodies and heartfelt performances. "At its core, Little Women is a story about identity - how we define ourselves and how we are shaped by the people around us," says Mihevc. "There is something for everyone in this show, and I hope audiences leave the theater feeling inspired to chase their dreams-just like Jo March."
The production will run through March 8, International Women's Day, making for a perfect way to celebrate the strength and spirit of women everywhere. What better way to honor the occasion than with a story that has empowered generations?
Join in for an unforgettable journey of laughter, love, and sisterhood. Tickets are available now at https://www.hillcrestvillageplayers.ca/
