Charlotte's Web: A Rising Star Class!
This play will focus on teamwork, public speaking, physical storytelling, partnering and most of all - fun! Come be in a show with all the enchanting characters from the most loved children's story of all time. Wilbur, the irresistible young pig who desperately wants to avoid the butcher; Fern, a 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 will give your actors a great opportunity and your audience an evening of enchantment.
