Directed & choreographed by Vincent DeGeorge

LITTLE WOMEN tells a story of personal discovery, heartache, hope and everlasting love. Based on Louisa May Alcott’s life, it follows the adventures of sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America.

ART Runs Feb. 23-March 2

VP_ArtART
Village Players
Feb. 23-March 2
[Fort Thomas]

Directed by John Leo Muething
Produced by Katie Jensen and Aimée Ward

Cast: Keith Cassidy as Marc, Eric Thomas as Serge & Jay Dallas Benson as Yvan

How much would you pay for a white painting? Would it matter who the painter was? Would it be art? One of Marc’s best friends, Serge, has just bought a very expensive painting. It’s about five feet by four, all white with white diagonal lines. To Marc, the painting is a joke, but Serge insists Marc doesn’t have the proper standard to judge the work. Another friend, Ivan, though burdened by his own problems, allows himself to be pulled into this disagreement. Eager to please, Ivan tells Serge he likes the painting. Lines are drawn and these old friends square off over the canvas, using it as an excuse to relentlessly batter one another over various failures. As their arguments become less theoretical and more personal, they border on destroying their friendships. At the breaking point, Serge hands Marc a felt tip pen and dares him: “Go on.” This is where the friendship is finally tested, and the aftermath of action, and its reaction, affirms the power of those bonds.
