Based on Louisa May Alcott’s beloved novel, this intimate production follows the March sisters — Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy — as they navigate love, loss, independence and the unbreakable bonds of family in 19th-century America. Adamo’s luminous music gives these timeless themes a contemporary emotional resonance that speaks directly to today’s audiences.
In 2026, we proudly celebrate the 30th anniversary of Little Women with the world premiere of Adamo’s newly revised score, presented for the very first time in Ghent — and marking the opera’s long-awaited European premiere.
Under the refined musical direction of Stijn Saveniers and the evocative, cinematic stage direction of Ricard Soler Mallol, this production promises an immersive experience where opera, storytelling, and visual poetry fuse into something profoundly human.
