GARDEN CITY, N.Y. - April 30, 2018 - PRLog -- Wilbur is a terrific pig – and his spider friend Charlotte is going to use her spinning talent to tell the world and help Wilbur avoid becoming pork chops! Theatreworks USA presents the timeless story of friendship in this production at 2:00 p.m. on May 12 on the Westermann Stage, Concert Hall in the Adelphi University Performing Arts Center, 1 South Ave, Garden City, New York. This production is recommended for children in grades K-5 and their families.

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."
