TPAC to Conclude 2015-16 Family Series Season with CHARLOTTE'S WEB, 6/5

BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center, the longest operating performance venue in lower Manhattan, presents the final event in the 2015-2016 Family Series Season: Charlotte's Web, on Sunday, June 5 at 1:30PM. Charlotte's Web is the final show in BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center's 2015-2016 Family Theater Season, which has featured plays, musicals, puppetry, concerts and dance for all ages.

Theatreworks' production of Charlotte's Web is based on E.B. White's loving story of the friendship between a pig named Wilbur and a little gray spider named Charlotte. Wilbur has a problem: how to avoid winding up as pork chops! Charlotte, a fine writer and true friend, hits on a plan to fool Farmer Zuckerman -- she will create a "miracle." Spinning the words "Some Pig" in her web, Charlotte weaves a solution which not only makes Wilbur a prize pig, but ensures his place on the farm forever. This treasured tale, featuring mad-cap and endearing farm animals, explores bravery, selfless love, and the true meaning of friendship.

Charlotte's Web is a play by Joseph Robinette based on the Newbery Medal-winning book by E.B. White (Stuart Little, Trumpet of the Swan) with an incidental music score by Jeffrey Lunden (Winner of the Lortel Award, Rodgers Award, and Jonathan Larson Award, and composer of Theatreworks USA productions of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Little Prince, The Great Railroad Race). The scenic design is by James D. Sandefur, and the costumes are by Anne-Marie Wright. This 60-minute play is recommended for audiences age 5 and up.
