About the Show
A heartfelt, classic story of love and friendship
The "Best-loved Children's Book" of all time weaves its way onto the stage in this beautiful adaptation of E.B. White’s masterpiece. When Wilbur, a "terrific" and "radiant" pig, is in danger of being sent to the butcher, an extraordinary spider named Charlotte steps in to save him. By spinning miraculous messages into her web, she proves to the world that Wilbur is no ordinary farm animal. Fall in love with the colorful characters of Zuckerman’s barn, from the gluttonous Templeton the rat to the spunky Fern Arable, as we celebrate the timeless story that offers a gentle yet profound look at what it means to be a true friend … and a good writer.
