Rachel Pantazis
Little Women: The Musical is playing through May 12,
2024, at the Playhouse on Rodney Square as part of Broadway in Wilmington.
Based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott, the production has 18 original musical
numbers. Every member of the fine ensemble cast is given a chance to shine with
a solo, although Hannah Taylor, portraying protagonist Jo March, belts out many
more numbers than any other cast member. Camryn Hamm, portraying Jo’s sister Beth,
sings a lovely duet with her as well as one with Mr. Lawrence ( Chris Carsten).
Noa Harris gives a convincing performance as Jo’s petulant younger sister Amy. Jo’s sister Meg , (Rachel Pantazis ) is the first one to break Jo’s heart. Moriel
Behar gives an outstanding performance as the prim and proper Aunt March. The
set design is very interesting with projections and a half-hidden staircase. Five exciting shows are on tap in Wilmington for the 2024-25 season.
