The Little Years
by John Mightondirected by Chris Abraham
Growing up in the 1950s, Kate is fascinated by time and space, interests dismissed as unbecoming to a young woman of her time. While her brother William achieves literary renown, her family struggles to reach the brilliant Kate as she grows from precocious teen to troubled woman. An inspiring look at the many ways we touch each other’s lives.
Originally produced by the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in 2011, it “may well be the best new play ever presented at Stratford” (National Post).
