Press Release

The curtain will soon rise on a true children’s classic as the Sterling Playmakers present their version of the E. B. White gem, Charlotte’s Web!  Director Kevin Robertson has given the "Playmaker touch" to a fun-filled production guaranteed to please.  Children and adults alike will enjoy scenes that will draw chuckles as well as tears of laughter!

The talented cast consists of some familiar faces, but a number of newcomers have come out to join the fun, including some young first-timers playing townsfolk and barnyard animals.  Charlotte the spider (Jeannie DeLisi) weaves her web of kindness to rescue Wilbur the pig (Chris DeLisi) from the farmer's axe.  Templeton the rat (Ty Walker) might be more of a “ham” than Wilbur!  Country charm is provided by Fern and Avery Arable (Lauren Miller and Ryan Duncan), and cute comedy is lent by a Lamb (Sierra Wharton) who's jealous of Wilbur!  Narrators Michelle Viljoen, Yasmin Hatley, and Terry DiMurro draw you into the story, while the Goose, Gander, and Sheep (Shelah Novak, Sabine Morrison, and JJ Meyers) draw even more laughs.  Lurvy (Jerry Garegnani) is a another highlight, as are the adorable goslings.  Dozens of others add to the merriment, turning the simple story into endearing entertainment.

Charlotte's Web is a must-see for the entire community!  Come enjoy some good, wholesome, family entertainment for about the price of a movie, and support your local community theater in the process. Tell all your family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers to do the same!

Producer Ken Shall still needs volunteers to round out his staff. Help is
needed in several areas, including tech, running crew, props, and makeup.
Contact Ken at KShall@firstfinancialgroup.com to volunteer and join the fun!
