Liverpool, UK — 1939-1945 (WWII) — A beloved literary classic is reimagined on stage this July as Little Women arrives at the Harlequin Players Theatre in Northwich, set not in 19th-century New England, but amid the grit and resilience of 1940s wartime Liverpool. This bold new adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s timeless novel, directed by Laura Elizabeth, brings the March sisters to life in a city under siege — where ration books, air raids, and evacuation orders form the backdrop to their hopes, heartbreaks, and hard-won dreams.
