When a little pig named Wilbur is destined for the butcher's block, some unlikely friends step in to save his life. In adventure after adventure, the animals, insects and children in E.B. White's classic story, Charlotte's Web, prove that a healthy dose of imagination and determination make anything possible. Charlotte's Web performs at the Hangar Theatre as part of the KIDDSTUFF Season from August 6th through the 9th at 10 am and 12-noon each day. Joseph Robinette's adaptation for the stage is a must-see production the entire family will fall in love with.
Wilbur realizes what great friends he has when his barnyard companions, especially one living high in the barn's pillars, spin a plan to save Wilbur's life and make him famous over night. Charlotte's Web is a remarkable story about true friendship, loyalty, and the cycle of life.
On Saturday, August 9th at noon, the whole family can see live,
professional theatre for less than the price of a movie ticket, thanks
to the Hangar Theatre 's Pay What You Can (PWYC) program. A limited
number of seats have been reserved for Pay What You Can patrons to see
Charlotte's Web; any amount will be accepted as payment for these
tickets; first come, first serve at the theatre. The Hangar is proud to
offer PWYC performances, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to
experience live theatre regardless of financial resources. The
KIDDSTUFF Pay What You Can program is made possible by Cayuga Family
Medicine, True Insurance, and West Wind Consulting with support from
Autodesk and Chemung Canal Trust Company.
