"Little Women" presented by Monroe Community Players December 6, 2008

The Story

The classic story - Meg, Josephine, Amy and Beth are the little women who, together with their mother, keep the home fires burning while their preacher father serves with the union army during the Civil War.

Meg, the eldest, is a second mother to the troupe while “Joe”, the tomboy, takes on the role of man of the house. Amy yearns for the good things in life and Beth, the frailest of the four, seeks comfort in gentle music. A simple tale of four young girls coming to womanhood.

This play tells a sentiment awakening tale in a simple and yet effective manner. It imparts entertainment without offending our sense of propriety and good taste, and gives us amusement of a beautiful kind, delivering its message of hope and cheer in a way that cannot but impart beneficial thoughts and send us from the theater with a higher opinion of humankind than we had when we entered.
