A tale of loyalty and friendship
This is the story of a pig named Wilbur and his veritable friend, a spider named Charlotte, who helps him to discover his place in the world. Fern Arable is Wilbur's adoring nine-year old owner, who, along with an ornery rat named Templeton and a host of lively barnyard animals, weave a wise and wonder-filled tale that has captivated three generations of readers.

The Children's Theatre's Young Adult Series (YAS!) presents a theatre classic for high scholl audiences through the Cincinnati Arts Association's "Adventures in the Arts" program. This season's YAS! production, The Miracle Worker, is the story of Helen Keller. Deaf, blind and mute, the 12 year old was more like a wild animal than a young girl. Terrified and very much alone in her silent, sightless world, she struggled against anyone who would help her. Then she met Annie Sullivan, the teacher who would guide her journey out of eternal darkness and silence. Tickets are $7 for daytime and $10 for evening performances. Teachers are provided an in-depth study guide. For reservations, phone (513) 977-4116, ext.1.
Ask about The Children's Theatre Puppet Program featuring the Joe Kovacs' Puppets. Fully-produced puppet shows for your school, community group, scout event or birthday party. This season - The Pied Piper of Hamelin, Primary Concerns, Where In The World Is Santa Claus? and Winter Wonderland.
