For this year’s fall play, WaterforDRAMA is putting on Little Women, a period piece about a poor family trying to survive the Civil War, based on a novel by Louisa May Alcott.

The story follows a family of six, the Marches, centering around the four sisters; Amy, Beth, Jo, and Meg.

Although all four sisters are central to the story, Jo March, the middle sister, gets the spotlight. She is a tomboy who doesn’t care about appealing to societal standards or wooing a man. Jo is an aspiring author and her novel and the play become interwoven.

The show will be running from November 2nd to the 4th at 7PM at the WHS Auditorium. It is to runs around two hours with a 15 minute intermission. Tickets are being sold during every lunch wave all week but will also be sold at the door. Adult tickets are $12 and student and senior citizen (60+) tickets are $10. Tickets sold at the door may be more expensive.

Although the same program will be put on every night, small differences are to be expected.

Saturday night, the last night, is often considered the best night to see the show. By this point, the cast is comfortable and less nervous performing in front of an audience.

Choosing your seat is one of the most important steps in ensuring you enjoy the performance. The center section of seats provides the best view of the whole stage. While any row will provide good visibility, the middle to front rows are generally the best.
