This award winning children’s classic by E.B. White of an unlikely friendship
between a pig and a spider is now a charming musical.
Fern, a young girl who understands what animals say, adopts a baby pig and
names him Wilbur. However, when Wilbur is about to be sent to the butcher,
Fern, his animal friends and Charlotte, a little grey spider, want to save
him. Charlotte writes “some pig” in her web and it is the beginning of a glorious
campaign to rescue Wilbur.
