Little Women Broadway Musical

September 20-October 6, 2024
Book by Allan Knee, Music by Jason Howland, Lyrics by Mindi Dickstein

In a world where women are expected to act a certain way and only allowed to do certain things, one young woman dares to dream beyond those expectations. Set in Civil War America, Jo March creates fantastical stories of heroics and romance. With her sisters, Meg, Beth and Amy, and her best friend Laurie, Jo writes and performs her imaginative stories with the hopes of one day selling them and becoming a world famous writer. But growing up in a society that has expectations isn’t easy. The March sisters must lean on each other to become who they are meant to be while also finding their own place both separately and in their family structure. Based on Louisa May Alcott's book, Little Women is a story of four girls who are fighting to become women in their own way and in their own time. Familial bonds, love, loss, heartbreak and courage will help them along the way.

November 2, 2024
This year will be our fifth presentation of a relic from Carroll’s theatre past. This 100-year reading will honor the Carroll Theatre tradition by reading a play that was performed here 100 years ago. November 1913 is the first record of a play performed by the Dramatic Club under the direction of Reverend Turnbull. This is staged with minimal rehearsal and stage elements, radio style.

We have planned this year's play, Seven Keys to Bald Pate Inn, for the evening of Nov 2nd at 7:30 p.m. Seven Keys was performed at Carroll in May of 1925.

The event is free and coincides with Founder's Day.

The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double challenge – not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family, and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. Associate Professor and Department Chair Kim Shire will direct.
