The Churchville-Chili Senior High School Drama Club will be taking on an American classic when they present “Little Women,” by Matt Buchanan based on the original novel by Louisa May Alcott.
The play is based on the four daughters of the March family living in New England during the Civil War in the United States. These four girls, Amy, Jo, Meg and Beth, tell the stories of their family’s trials and triumphs during the show and let us into their home. No matter the circumstances their family may face, the one thing that remains true throughout is the strength, bonds, and love the sisters have for one another.
The cast and crew have worked hard to ensure this show is true to the story and message Louisa May Alcott intended in her original work. The crew has created a simple set without a lot of moving parts so as not to distract from the work the actors are doing on stage. This show has helped to push all of the actors and crew to explore new skills they have not used in the past, and continue to refine the skills they already have.
The play will be presented Friday, November 3, at 7 p.m. and Saturday, November 4, at 2 and 7 p.m. at the Churchville-Chili Performing Arts Center, 5786 Buffalo Road (entrance 1).
Pre-sale tickets are $8, available online at www.cccsd.org/finearts. Tickets at the door on the night of the show are $10.
