Kitsap Forest Theater presents Little WomenBased on Louisa May Alcott’s American classic, this Civil War story of love and family stands the test of time.Produced nationally and internationally, Little Women has been praised by critics for its ambition in adapting such a well-known story for the stage. This timeless, captivating story is brought to life in this glorious musical filled with personal discovery, heartache, hope and everlasting love.Based on Louisa May Alcott’s life, Little Women follows the adventures of sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy March. Jo is trying to sell her stories for publication, but the publishers are not interested – her friend, Professor Bhaer, tells her that she has to do better and write more from herself. Begrudgingly taking this advice, Jo weaves the story of herself and her sisters and their experience growing up in Civil War America.Little Women guarantees an afternoon filled with laughter, tears and a lifting of the spirit. The powerful score soars with the sounds of personal discovery, heartache and hope – the sounds of a young America finding its voice. We invite you to join with us as we celebrate gathering together again for live theater in a safe and beautiful outdoor setting.All shows are on Saturday and Sunday at 2:00 pm. Show dates are June 12/13, 19/20, 26/27; July 10/11, 17/18, 24/25; August 7/8, 14/15, 21/22. Download this hand calendar here.

We’ll make stops at Bremerton Canvas, Memorial Plaza and the Puget Sound Navy Museum before concluding at the USS Turner Joy Museum Ship on the Bremerton waterfront.

All walkers will have free access to tour the Turner Joy and all kids on the tour will receive a sailor duck keepsake to take home.

We’ll hit parklands, forests and other nooks and crannies along the bridge route in a walk that is best for only the walkers of the heartiest endurance. It will be a three-plus hour challenge that will likely cover about eight miles.

NOTE: This is for only the most experienced of hikers. Please wear comfortable, durable shoes and be ready to go on some steep trails.

Party in the Park 7/24To cap this year’s Bridging Bremerton, we’ve saved the party for the end.
