There’s nobody quite like a sister: ‘Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women’ review

by Abbey Mulcahy | A&E Reporter | Published April 26, 2026

Whether it’s 2026 or 1868, some things never change: teenage defiance, boy best friends catching feelings and childish squabbles with sisters. In “Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women,” the four March sisters go through all of these things with a humorous, heartwarming edge.

The show, which opened at the Guthrie Theater April 23, blends Louisa May Alcott’s beloved novel with fictional reflections from the author. Through family troubles and little victories, the show holds a mirror not only to Alcott and Jo’s similarities, but also to the timeless particularities of sisterhood.

The play centers around Jo March and her three sisters, Meg, Beth and Amy, as they navigate through their final years as children and into adulthood. While domestic disagreements and societal pressures occasionally create rifts between the girls, they always return to one another with forgiveness and affection.
