book by Rachel Sheinkin
music by Rachel Portman
lyrics by Donna DiNovelli
based on the "Little House" books by Laura Ingalls Wilder
directed by Francesca Zambello
Based on Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved "Little House" books, this world premiere musical centers on the independent spirit of the teenager Laura, the family's settlement in DeSmet, South Dakota, and the hardships and joys faced by a family in a pioneer community. Internationally renowned opera and theater director Francesca Zambello leads an accomplished creative team in the development of this new work, including lyrics by acclaimed lyricist Donna DiNovelli, music by Academy Award-winner Rachel Portman and book by Tony Award-winning book writer Rachel Sheinkin (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee). The development of this world premiere musical in Minneapolis fuses an integral part of American culture with some of the best theater writers today, in the heartland where these poignant stories first came to life. Little House on the Prairie marks the first musical to be presented on the McGuire Proscenium Stage.
