Amana - Come watch as Charlotte spins her magic web and cast a heartwarming spell over Fern, Wilbur and all the animals in Zuckerman's barn during The Old Creamery Theatre for Young Audiences production of Charlotte's Web.

A true favorite for so many, Charlotte's Web by E.B. White was dramatized for the stage by Joseph Robinette. The show opens Saturday April 23 at 1 p.m. on the Main Stage at 39 38th Ave., Amana and runs through May 7.

Charlotte's Web is directed by Sean McCall of Marengo. The cast consists of Laura Ambrose of Coon Rapids, Minn.; T.J. Besler of Manchester; Nicholas Hodge of South Amana; Jackie McCall of Marengo; Amber Snyder of Memphis, Tenn.; Ian Zahren of South Amana; and Kamille Zbanek of Ely, IA.

McCall said bringing a favorite story to life on stage is always a thrill. "The popularity of Charlotte's Web plus the professional experience of the cast makes for a show not to be missed," he said. "Plus, we're teaching the next generation that the theatre is a wonderful place."

Tickets are $8 per person for reserved seating. Reservations for this show are highly recommended as tickets are going fast.
