California Theatre Center, a perennial favorite, returns this season with a story of courage and true friendship that has delighted readers for decades. Based on E.B. White’s touching novel of the friendship between a lovable pig named Wilbur and a kind, intelligent spider named Charlotte, this play explores a magical barnyard world where animals talk and miracles happen. When Wilbur, the runt of the litter, seems doomed for the slaughterhouse, Charlotte devises a plan to save his life. Assisted by a wily rat named Templeton, Charlotte spins messages into her webs praising Wilbur as a prize pig. Farmer Zuckerman is fooled, and Wilbur even goes on to compete at the county fair! Will Wilbur take home first prize? And will Charlotte live to see her friend triumph over adversity?

    I didn't know what to think, I mean, my daughter and I don't know Sign Language but I wanted her to see the play. After seeing it... not only was it very interesting because all the characters use sign language but they voice everything too. The show was amazing. Lot's of high energy just for the kids and lots of audience interaction with the actors during the show. William Morgan sure knows his stuff and knows how to entertain children. Collapse

    Loved it! As a transposed Asheville,Western North Carolinian moving to Foster City in 1971, I was homesick for the Blue Ridge Mountains' song and dance...I recognized the Square Dance steps from Asheville High School Square Dance Team some 45 years ago...Loved the energy and Side Saddle Music, especially Rocky Top...Keep explaining the ethnic influences of the region (the Geltic influence explains my husband's W.N.C. accent)...Yee haw and kudos to you all for such a fine toe tapping hand clapping slapping time! Glad I volunteered for my Granddaughter Arianna's Field Trip...Please come back and perform again... Collapse
