Salutations!
My journey with Charlotte's Web began almost 20 years ago when I performed in a production using this very script. The impact that those rehearsals, the cast and crew, and the story had on me was life changing. The message of friendship and love is transcendant. For this, I thank the countless friends I made through that journey, especially Nancy Eddy who directed that production and has been a true friend ever since. I am the teacher and director I am today because of her!
Fast forward to today: The journey I have shared with this amazing cast and crew has been just as impactful. Theatre has a way of bringing people together and building relationships that will last a lifetime. I have loved watching the play come together and friendships being formed onstage. It isn't every day that you find a group of students that come together in such an authentic way AND create such a beutiful story together. This cast and crew did both. The storytelling viewed onstage is true and the relationships are real.
We invite you to join our HUMBLE family as we share our story with you. Life may not always be RADIANT, but with friends by your side you will always find it interesting. Theatre is a TERRIFIC way to explore what it is to be human and to share great experiences; to let go for just a moment and live in a world created just for you. I guess you could say that this isn't just any play, but that it is SOME PLAY!
(Yea, I know... That was all WAY too forced, but I digress.)
Thank you for joining us as we share this story with you about friendship and love; and we hope that you will join our family. This is my favorite part about live theatre: We will never again be in this moment or have this exact experience again, so let's enjoy it while it lasts and hold on to the memory for a lifetime.
