Charlotte’s Web
Based on the book by E.B. White
Directed by Tammy Kirby
It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend…

This is a well known classic piece of children’s literature centering on friendship. Featuring all of the loveable characters – 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, where the “miracles” take place; 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 writing words in her web. A humorous, fun loving story for the entire family brought to life on stage by the delightful characters as they learn what a friend is and more importantly, how to be a friend.

Feb 18- 21, 2010
Audition: 11/9 & 11/10

_________________________________


Ever wonder how Jungle Red nail polish became so popular???

The Two-Act play is an acidic commentary on the pampered lives and power struggles of various wealthy and up-and-comers and the gossip that propels and damages their relationships. While men frequently are the subject of their lively discussions and play an important role in the action on-stage, they are strictly characters mentioned but never seen. This all-female cast brings socialites competing in a no-holds barred survival of the fittest. They make up an artificial society of vanity, comedy, tragedy, hope and disappointment.

Set in 1936 – 1938
This production is rated PG
