Orchard House, home of Little Women and Louisa May Alcott
Learn the real life story of Little Women.
In this bonus episode of Someone Lived Here, Kendra takes you to Orchard House, the home of Louisa May Alcott in Concord, Massachusetts. This home is where Louisa wrote and set her book, Little Women. This home was recreated for the recent Little Women film, directed by Greta Gerwig and nominated for an Oscar.
In this episode, we unravel the real lives of Anna, Louisa, Elizabeth, and May. By walking through the rooms and items they owned, we better understand the real people, in both their happiness and hardships.
Thank you to Jan Turnquist and the entire staff at Orchard House. The home is open to visitors almost every day. You can learn more about the home and take a virtual tour on their website (https://louisamayalcott.org/home).
