Classic holiday tale

Grand Valley is bringing a heartwarming American classic to its stage just in time for the holiday season. Beginning on November 15, the Theatre program presents Mary Louise Alcott's 'Little Women.' The much-loved Civil War-era tale begins on a memorable Christmas when Marmee leaves to visit her sick husband and Jo sells her beautiful hair to help finance the trip. The story continues as the four sisters -- Jo, Meg, Amy, and Beth -- struggle to find their places in the world while learning about themselves, true love, and the meaning of family.

Showtimes are
  • November 15, 16, 21, and 22 at 7:30 p.m.; and
  • November 16 and 17 at 2 p.m.

    Performances run about 90 minutes and are held in the Louis Armstrong Theatre, Performing Arts Center. Tickets are $10 for adults, $7 seniors, $5 college students, and $2.50 for K-12 students. Group rates are available. Reserve seats by calling the box office at (616) 331-2300.
