Little Women

SCHOOL PLAY– THIS WEEK!

Come see this year’s play: Little Women: Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, a play adapted from Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel which follows the lives of the four March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—as they navigate love, loss, and personal growth during the American Civil War. As the sisters experience the joys and hardships of family life, they learn about sacrifice, independence, and the true meaning of love. The play captures the warmth, humor, and emotional depth of Alcott’s beloved story.

DATES:  April 24, 25, 26

TIME:     7:00 PM

PLACE: GCS High School Gym

PRICE:  Tickets are $8 and may be purchased in the school office in advance OR may be purchased at the door
