Bradley Theatre Opens Its Season with "Little Women"

Scott Kanoff and Susan Somerville Brown are with us this week, to talk about the Bradley University Theatre Department's production of "Little Women." It's a musical adaptation of the well-known novel, and Kanoff describes it as perhaps the department's most ambitious undertaking. After staging several rock-oriented musicals in the past few seasons, the department wanted its students to experience a more traditional musical this year. They were also looking for a show that offered multiple prominent roles for female performers.

"Little Women" opened last weekend. Performances continue tonight, tomorrow night and Sunday afternoon at the Hartmann Center Theatre.
