Zanesville Community Theatre holds Open Auditions for
Charlotte's Web
Based on the book by
E.B. White
Adapted by Joseph
Robinette
Director: Amy & Todd King
Auditions: January 4, 5, 2004 • 7pm • Cast:
7m., 9w. [flexible ensemble group]
The Children's Literature Association named this "the best
American children's book of the past two hundred years," and Joseph
Robinette, working with the advice of E.B. White, has created a play that
captures this work in a thrilling and utterly practical theatrical presentation.
The costumes and unit set may be quite simple—it's the story and relationships
that make the show—or they may be as colorful and elaborate as you wish. All
the enchanting characters 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; the Zuckerman family; the Arables; 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 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.
