It’s the summer of 1776, and the nation is ready to declare independence… if only our founding fathers can agree to do it! 1776 follows John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson as they attempt to convince the members of the Second Continental Congress to vote for Independence! With stirring songs like “Is Anybody There?”, “The Egg”, “He Plays the Violin”, “The Lees of Old Virginia” and more, 1776 reveals the failings and the ultimate nobility of our nation’s founders.

LITTLE WOMEN
Sinclair Community College Theatre
Oct. 9-17
Black Box Theatre [Dayton]

Directed by Kimberly Borst

A refreshing take of a literary classic! Against the backdrop of the Civil War, the March sisters find themselves at the intersection of authenticity and the pressures they face to be accepted in a war-torn society. Get ready for a production tackling what it takes to grow up, facing a world defined by gender, classism, and personal tragedy. This modern take on Louisa May Alcott’s classic is fit to burst with humor, emotion, and soul.

Stauss Theatre [Highland Heights]

Directed by Katharine Moser-Priddy
Music directed by Jamie Strawn
Choreographed by Jeri Gatch

Cast: Sydney Hall as Jo March, Katelyn Thatcher as Marmee March/Hag, Kylie Mobley as Meg March/Clarissa, Lorelle Stewart as Beth March/Rodrigo 2, Riley Griffin as Amy March/Troll, Dakara Cooper as Aunt March/Mrs. Kirk, Isaiah Burton as Laurie Laurence/Rodrigo 1, Luc Vandenbroek as Mr. Laurence/Knight, Daniel Gnau as Professor Bhaer & Joshua W Edwards as John Brooke/Braxton

Louisa May Alcott’s beloved story of the adventures of the four March sisters is brought to vivid musical life in Little Women. The Civil War is in full swing, and the March sisters — Meg, the oldest, a romantic, the spirited and tomboyish Jo, sweet and loving Beth, and irascible, playful Amy — live in Concord, Massachusetts with their Marmee while their father is on the battlefield.

Filled with adventure (both lived and imagined), heartbreak, and a deep sense of hope, the struggle of these “Little Women” to find their own voices mirrors the growing pains of a young America. With buoyant, joyful melodies, memorable characters, and a big-hearted message, Little Women reminds us that “sometimes when you dream, your dreams come true.”
