College of the Ozarks Presents “Little Women”<\/strong>
\nBy: Ashley Bench<\/p>\n

College of the Ozarks\u2019 departments of Theatre and Music will present the spring musical, \u201cLittle Women,\u201d at 7:30 p.m., on March 2, 3, 5 and 6. A Sunday matinee will begin at 2:30 p.m., on March 4. <\/p>\n

Produced by a special arrangement with Music Theatre International, \u201cLittle Women,\u201d with music by Jason Howland and lyrics by Mindi Dickstein, effectively displays the hardships of a family of four sisters and their mother, the Marches, during the civil war. Based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott, the March family develops a bond that can never be broken and learn to have a hopeful endurance with every situation life brings. Playwright Allan Knee seeks to touch the hearts of many through the emotional heartaches and the joys of each sister. <\/p>\n

C of O sophomore Matt Matney will play the part of Mr. Laurence, a wealthy neighbor to the March family. \u201cFor years young women have read the stories of Jo and dreamed of being one of the March sisters in \u2018Little Women,\u2019 and I think that\u2019s one of the best concepts of this musical,\u201d says Matney. \u201cIt takes the classic story so many young girls connect with and combines it with a beautiful score that adults will enjoy as well. It truly is a family event that intrigues several generations of avid readers and theatre patrons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Regular adult tickets are $15. Tickets for senior citizens are $13, students are $13 and children 12 and under are $11. C of O Associates will receive free admission to one performance upon presentation of their Associates Card. Guests of Associates are $5.<\/p>\n
