(WEST WINDSOR, NJ) -- Off-Centre Stages presents Little Women across two weekends from October 2-11, 2026 at the Kelsey Theatre. Based on Louisa May Alcott's life, Little Women follows the adventures of sisters Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy March.
Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself.
Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters as they grow up in Civil War America.
Directed by MJ Santry, performances take place Friday, October 2 at 8:00pm; Saturday, October 3 at 2:00pm; Sunday, October 4 at 2:00pm; Friday, October 9 at 8:00pm; Saturday, October 10 at 2:00pm; and Sunday, October 11 at 2:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The Kelsey Theatre is located at 1200 Old Trenton Road in West Windsor, New Jersey.
Little Women features a Book by Alan Knee; Music by Jason Howland; and Lyrics by Mindi Dickstein.
Little Women is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.

A rare conversation on what matters most. We struggle to stay present. We wait for the world to become peaceful. And too often, we feel powerless to change any of it. What if power, presence, and peace are closer than we think? What could power, presence, and peace actually look like in your life?
