Four sisters, each with their own particular hopes, ambitions and dreams, are living with their actress mother in London. As they listen to her learning her lines for her new play, 'Little Women', they realise the strong parallels between the sisters in the classic novel, and their own lives.
Their father is away from home trying to make it as an actor, and the girls miss him dreadfully. Together, using all their individual talents, they devise a plan to try and reunite their parents.
