Paradise Community Theatre Presents: Charlotte's Web
By Joseph Robinette
Director: Samuel Temple
This is a family story about kindness, empathy, and the extraordinary lengths we can go for the people (or pigs) we love. The Children's Literature Association named Charlotte's Web "the best American children's book of the past two hundred years," and playwright Joseph Robinette, working with the advice of the book's author E.B. White, has created a play hat captures this work in a thrilling and magical fashion. All the enchanting characters from the classic book are here: 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; 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 to help her friend and tell the story of "some pig" that has enthralled generations of readers and theatergoers.
