CHARLOTTE'S WEB to Run 4/10-5/25 at Center for Puppetry Arts
Everyone's favorite friendly spider and barnyard crew are heading back to the city April 10 - May 25 for all generations to enjoy their tale of friendship. E.B. White's timeless story, Charlotte's Web, will wow guests at the Center for Puppetry Arts with its heartwarming wisdom as Charlotte the spider saves Wilbur the pig by using her wits, words and webs. With the help of some of the barnyard's most colorful residents, including Templeton, the gluttonous rat, this family favorite shares the enduring message of how friends can work together to overcome adversity.
Adapted by Joseph Robinette and directed by Jon Ludwig, Charlotte's Web features a variety of puppetry styles performed by skilled puppeteers Dolph Amick, Brian Harrison, Reay Kaplan, Amy Sweeney and Tim Sweeney. All of the puppets, props and scenery bring the iconic illustrations from the book to life on stage and were created onsite by the Center for Puppetry Arts' talented staff.
Recommended for ages four and up, Charlotte's Web is presented in the Mainstage Theater April 10 - May 25. Show times are as follows:
· Tuesday- Friday: 10 a.m. & 11:30 a.m.
