Windham Theatre Guild Cancels Charlotte's Web

By:

The Windham Theatre Guild is sorry to announce that for reasons beyond their control, they have had to cancel the February 2011 production of "Charlotte's Web". It is the WTG's hope to mount another production of this show in a future season.

As a replacement, the Windham Theatre Guild has selected a family classic comedy, "Bell, Book and Candle", a fable about two witches, a warlock, an apartment house, the young man upstairs, an eccentric aunt, and a writer obsessed with writing a book on the existence of witches. As the precursor to the TV series "Bewitched", this play became a successful movie starring Jimmy Stewart, Jack Lemmon, and Kim Novak. The movie won the Golden Globe award for best picture. The original play starred Rex Harrison and Lilli Palmer.

"Bell, Book and Candle" was the most popular play of the 28 written by John Van Druten for London and Broadway. Many of his plays were made into movies. His credits for directing included the first musical production of "The King and I" on Broadway.

Come and enjoy a genuine classic, as witchcraft wrestles with love in this romantic comedy. Performances will be February 4th through the 19th 2011 at the Burton Leavitt Theatre, 779 Main Street,Willimantic. For tickets and more information, visit www.windhamtheatreguild.org.
