The new musical is based on the classic novel by Louisa May Alcott and features music by Jason Howland, lyrics by Mindi Dickstein and a book by Allan Knee.
Director Susan H. Schulman (The Secret Garden) was on hand to guide the gathered media through a selection of songs for the musical, which played on out-of-town try-out in North Carolina before moving to Manhattan.
The cast of the musical features such stars as Sutton Foster, Maureen McGovern, Amy Alexander, Janet Carroll, Danny Gurwin, John Hickok, Megan McGinnis, Jenny Powers, Robert Stattel and Jim Weitzer. The production begins previews on Dec. 7 and opens on Jan. 23 at the Virginia Theatre.
