The Springfield Little Theatre Education Department is excited to present CHARLOTTE’S WEB in its 2026-2027 Education Series!
Wilbur the pig has a problem: he is destined for the dinner table. But high in the corner of the barn doorway lives Charlotte, a wise and gentle spider who becomes his dearest friend — and hatches a plan to save his life, one miraculous word at a time. Based on E.B. White’s beloved classic, this heartwarming stage adaptation brings Fern, Templeton the rat, and the whole barnyard to life in a story about friendship, loyalty, and what it truly means to be “Some Pig.”
Placement auditions for performers ages 8 through 18 will be held Sunday, August 23, 2026 at 4:00 PM at The Judith Enyeart Reynolds School of the Performing Arts for Springfield Little Theatre (“The Judy”).
