Audiences returned to the Depot Theater for the first time in almost a year last Saturday afternoon for the Family Theatre’s charming production of “Charlotte’s Web.”
A narrator (Madeline Watts) sets the stage for the tale of how young Fern Arable (Azalea Mae) saves a newborn pig, the runt of the litter, names him Wilbur, and raises him until he is sold to her Uncle Homer (Chris Ibarra).
