In this adaptation four actors in an attic retell Louisa May Alcott's classic novel. Using found objects from across time (balloons, hula hoops, ribbon dancers, and more), the players create scenes of love, loss, and the ever glowing warmth of the March family hearth. Jo goes on a journey of artistic self-discovery and coming of age as she struggles to become the writer she longs to be amid the classic triumphs and troubles of Meg, Beth, Amy, and even Laurie. It is through a sense of play that Jo and her sisters find themselves, spending time in the attic making fairy stories with witches and heroes, or spending an evening reciting the articles written for their beloved imaginary newspaper. It is, however, through the tragedy of losing her sister Beth that Jo finally finds her voice as an artist, and moves into adulthood with the knowledge that while families change and grow apart, the ones we love are always close at heart.
Event Sponsored by Sagebrush Stillworks.
LITTLE WOMEN is supported in part by grants from the Wyoming Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Albany County and City of Laramie Community Partner Funds.
About Relative Theatrics:
Relative Theatrics strives to present thought-provoking theatre that examines the joining qualities of the human race. We believe that theatre is a forum with the power to illuminate the binding qualities of humanity and reinforce the ideals that as a society we have values that pose as common ground and emotions that relate us to one another. Taking artistic risk, we provide a community gathering place where thoughts can be exchanged about society, culture, and the power of creativity.
About Laramie Main Street Alliance:
Laramie Main Street Alliance strives to preserve historic Downtown Laramie while enhancing its economic and social vitality. We serve as the voice for Downtown Laramie and assist the businesses, residents and consumers who believe the heart of our great community lies in a vibrant downtown.
About Revive the Wyo Theater:
In August of 2019, Laramie Main Street, a 501c3, was given the shuttered Wyo Theater at 309 S. 5 th Street. Since that time a dedicated group of community volunteers have developed a plan to transform the building into a mixed use educational, entertainment venue. At this time, our highest priority is making improvements to the building so that it is safe to occupy, including electrical and mechanical upgrades, a fire suppression system and ADA accessibility.
