Kate Hamill's updated adaptation of Little Women was first performed in 2018. It follows the March sisters - Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March - as they grow up during the Civil War, while their father is away fighting and their mother, Marmee, holds the family together. As they face grief, family struggles, love, and the expectations placed on women, each sister tries to find her own path and ambitions. This adaptation puts Jo's struggle to become a writer and define herself at its center while giving all four sisters room to be funny, difficult, loving, and imperfect. This rendering keeps Alcott's coming-of-age story but gives it a lively, modern-minded focus on identity, gender, and independence, as it shifts from one scene to another like snapshots through time versus an in-depth linear portrayal.
