Joseph Robinette
worked with advice from E.B. White to create a play that is thrilling.
The enchanting characters come to life on the Ritz stage: 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." A play for all ages.
