‘Little Women – The Musical’ arrives at The Playhouse on Rodney Square in May, and local audiences may recognize Philly-area conductor Tom Fosnocht trying out the road.
"Putting every single piece of this puzzle together was a fabulous experience, and doing this tour and seeing the whole country was something that appealed to me as well.”
When not on the road, Fosnocht is a music director, pianist, composer-arranger, and vocal coach working in the region.
Fosnocht also helped with specific rearrangements that were produced for this tour.
The cast includes Camryn Hamm as Beth March in the production. Hamm has chops as a television actress, but has found touring with a live production a different experience.
She says this live performance tour truly feels like a community.
"Usually you go in and you can kind of expect ‘Okay, I might not jibe with every single person’, but everyone on this tour is so nice and kind, and down-to-earth and so talented at the same time. I’m always in awe of them and how they carry themselves onstage and off, so it’s been a real pleasure and I think a happy, happy surprise.”
‘Little Women – The Musical’ is on stage at The Playhouse on Rodney Square in Wilmington for five performances May 9-12.
