Ana Martin in London premiere of Little Women The Musical

Rising star Ana Martin, Class of 2018, will play Beth in Little Women The Musical, at the Park Theatre, in North London, from 11 November to 19 December.

The 21-year-old regularly appeared in school productions such as West Side Story, Anything Goes, Peter Pan and Les Misérables.  She filmed her part in a Netflix teen drama called Heirs of the Night while taking her A levels and has also appeared alongside Sean Bean in the crime drama Legends. Next year she’ll be back on our screens in Netflix’s new international spy thriller series In From the Cold.

Little Women a Musical is based on the 1868 novel by Louisa May Alcott and follows the adventures of the four March sisters – Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy. Jo, the second eldest of the March daughters and an aspiring writer, receives yet another rejection from a publisher. Her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells Jo she can do better by making her stories more personal. Begrudgingly, Jo weaves the story of how she and her sisters grew up in Civil War America – a tale of self-discovery, heartache, hope and everlasting love.

The cast includes Ryan Bennett (Jersey Boys international tour) as Professor Bhaer, Hana Ichijo as Meg, Sev Keoshgerian (Little Miss Sunshine: A Road Musical) as Laurie, Anastasia Martin (Legends) as Beth, Mary Moore (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice) as Amy, Bernadine Pritchett (The Phantom of the Opera) as Aunt March, Brian Protheroe (Othello, The Merchant of Venice) as Mr Lawrence, Lejaun Sheppard (Tina the Musical) as John Brooke, Savannah Stevenson (Wicked), as Marmee and Lydia White (Chess) as Jo. Also in the company is Liv Andrusier.

Little Women has a book by stage and screen writer Allan Knee (Finding Neverland), lyrics by Mindi Dickstein, and music by Grammy Award-winner Jason Howland. The production is directed by Bronagh Lagan with set and costume design by Nik Corrall, musical direction by Leo Munby, orchestrations by Andy Collyer, choreography by Sarah Golding, lighting design by Ben M Rogers, sound design by Paul Gavin and casting by Jane Deitch.

It is produced by Katy Lipson for Aria Entertainment, Hope Mill Theatre and Knockhardy Productions, in association with Park Theatre. It is co-produced by Bonnie Comley and Stewart F. Lane and Katy Galloway Productions.
