Goochland Community Theatre is thrilled to present Little Women, adapted by Gary Peterson and based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott, as the first show of our 2025-2026 season. (September 26-28, 2025)
Directors Emily Gerber and Meagan Justice are seeking a group of creative, collaborative actors as we craft our take on Alcott’s classic story. Strong physical acting abilities are preferred. We are looking for 5 Women and 5 Men over the age of 18.
About the Show: Little Women follows the lives of the four March sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, from childhood to adulthood during the American Civil War era. It highlights their individual journeys as they navigate family life, friendships, love, and personal growth, all while facing the challenges of a war-torn nation.
**Please Note: The roles of Jo and Beth March have been precast.**
