Charlotte's Web

Charlotte's Web is an award-winning children's novel by acclaimed American author E. B. White, about a pig named Wilbur who is saved from being slaughtered by an intelligent spider named Charlotte. The book was first published in 1952, with illustrations by Garth Williams. The novel tells the story of a pig named Wilbur and his friendship with a barn spider named Charlotte. When Wilbur is in danger of being slaughtered by the farmer, Charlotte writes messages praising Wilbur (such as "Some Pig") in her web in order to persuade the farmer to let him live.

A Christmas Story
December 3, 4, 5, 2010
A young boy named Ralphie Parker only wants one thing for Christmas: a Red Ryder BB gun. However, he is not sure he will ever make it to Christmas, between his brother Randy and the school bully Scut Farkus. Whenever he tells someone how much he wants it, he/she tells him that he will shoot his eye out and refuses to get it for him. Even a department store Santa Claus tells him the same thing. After Ralphie gets a C+, he gets teased again by Scut. In response, Ralphie beats him very badly while cursing loudly. However, his parents do not get mad at him, and on Christmas morning, he gets the BB gun, since his father had one at that age. When he goes to try it out, the bullet ricochets and knocks off his glasses, which he accidentally steps upon while looking for them. He makes up a story about an icicle, and his parents believe him. In the end, a horde of dogs come in and steal the Christmas turkey, so his family goes out for “Chinese turkey,” or duck. synopsis www.stageagent.com

Producer Alan Bailey and writer Connie Ray created a musical comedy about a family of gospel singers in economically depressed 1938, a little family feudin' along with keeping the faith in Mount Pleasant Baptist Church somewhere in the North Carolina hills. "When it played in New York, most of the audience had never been to a church like this. They saw it as something new," Bailey explains. "But now, in the regional theatre setting, the primary appeal is to people most like the audience in the play's church."
The music, most of it bluegrass-flavored gospel, full of four-part harmonies, features the performers playing a variety of instruments. New and old gospel songs make the show a contemporary and historical musical treat. "Wonderful time up There," "No Tears in Heaven," "Christian Cowboy," "I'll Never Die" (I'll just change my address), "Jesus is Mine," "I'll live a Million Years," "I wouldn't take nothing for my journey Now," "I'm using my bible for a road map," "I'll walk every step of the Way," "I'm taking a Flight," "Smoke on the Mountain" and "I'll fly Away." synopsis from www.amishacres.com |

Theatrical Release Poster
February 1933
The Frake family of Iowa make plans to attend the State Fair in late summer 1946. Father Abel Frake has hopes that his boar will win a prize; his wife Melissa is entering her mincemeat. Daughter Margy is upset with her beau's (Harry) plans for their life together ("It Might as Well Be Spring"). The family heads for the fair ("Driving at Night/Our State Fair"), where son Wayne meets Emily Arden, a singer, and falls instantly in love ("That's for Me"). Meanwhile, Melissa's mincemeat has won a Blue Ribbon. Margy meets Pat, a reporter, and a mutual romantic attraction develops.
On the last day of the fair, Abel's boar wins the Blue Ribbon, Emily breaks off the growing relationship with Wayne, and Pat must leave for a new job. Back home, Wayne returns to his old girlfriend Eleanor. Pat arrives unexpectedly and asks Margy to marry him. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
