Seeking actors ages 12 and up for "Little Women the Musical". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Based on Louisa May Alcott's life, Little Women 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 for herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America. Additional info: Choose and prepare one audition side.
