Dec 4-6 & 11-13 -  "CHARLOTTE'S WEB"

By Joseph Robinette

Based on the classic by E.B. White

Come see all your favorites - Wilbur, the irresistible pig who desperately wants to avoid the butcher, Fern, the kind girl who understands what animals say to each other, Templeton, the gluttonous rat who can occasionally be talked into a good deed: the Zuckerman family: the Arables: and , most of all the  extraordinary spider, Charlotte, who proves to be "a true friend and a good writer."  Determined to save Wilbur, Charlotte begins her campaign with the "miracle" of her web in which she writes, "Some pig." It's the beginning of a victorious campaign which ultimately ends with the now-safe Wilbur doing what is most important to Charlotte.  This is a beautiful play about friendship that the whole family will love.
