Experience the classic novel you adore as it’s being written in this playful and theatrical new adaptation that puts the author in the spotlight.

As they come of age during the Civil War under the loving guidance of Marmee, ambitious Jo, traditional Meg, gentle Beth and spirited Amy balance their sisterly bonds with their distinct personalities. Captivating readers for generations, this beloved story shines anew onstage with an energetic and novelistic approach using dialogue, description and interior thoughts just as Alcott wrote them. Relive this timeless tale of family, resilience and a determined young writer finding her way in the world. Little Women is recommended for ages 11 and up.

But the kind-hearted Dumbkopf doesn’t hesitate to share his meager food supply with the Old Woman. To reward him, the Old Woman helps him find the magical Golden Goose. As Dumbkopf leaves the forest with the enchanted bird, he hilariously encounters a variety of townspeople who all become stuck fast to each other when they reach out to touch it. You can just imagine the sight of Dumbkopf carrying the mystical goose with a human chain attached!
