“Little Women: The Musical” will open on stage at the Canyon Theatre Guild March 12 with a free champagne opening. The musical will run through April 10.

The play tells the story of the four March sisters­­, traditional Meg, aspiring writer Jo, timid Beth and romantic Amy, as they grow up in Civil War America. As their lives unfold so do the lives of Jo’s fantasy characters, which show up as whimsical vignettes from Jo’s imagination.

“This timeless classic has it all: amazing music, heartfelt romance, joyous laughter and a big loving family. As a period piece set in the Civil War era, it evokes a time when women were coming into their own and making the world a better place for it,” said CTG Executive and Artistic Director TimBen Boydston. “The Canyon Theatre Guild’s amazing directing team of Jennifer Teague and John Lucewich have once again brought magic to the CTG stage. This show will make you laugh and may make you cry but it will certainly entertain you with the story of the March family well-told.”

The show is family-friendly.

Tickets are flat-rate seating any row. Shows run Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. $22 adults, $19 juniors (-18)/seniors (62+).
