SYNOPSIS

Determined to save Wilbur the Pig, Charlotte (a very wise spider) begins her campaign with the “miracle” of her web in which she writes, “Some pig.” It’s the beginning of a victorious campaign which ultimately ends with the now-safe Wilbur doing what is most important to Charlotte. This is a beautiful, knowing play about friendship that will give your actors a great opportunity and your audience an evening of enchantment.

CHARACTERS

Charlotte: an extraordinary spider, who proves to be “a true friend and a good writer.

Wilbur: An irresistible young pig who desperately wants to avoid the butcher

Fern: a girl who understands what animals say to each other

Templeton: A gluttonous rat who can occasionally be talked into a good deed

Mr Zuckerman: The farmer next door where Wilbur used to live

The Arables: Fern’s parents and brother Avery

…and many more animals to round out the farm house!
