'Charlotte's Web' at Cardinal Stritch

The Theater Department’s annual children’s show will be national award-winning children’s playwright Joseph Robinette’s adaption of E. B. White’s “Charlotte’s Web” with music by Charles Strouse.

This joyous musical includes, “Eating,” Wilbur the Pig’s humorous yet poignant song about growing up, “Who Says We Can’t Be Friends,” an enchanting duet between Wilbur and his new-found companion Charlotte, “Welcome to the Zuckerman Barn,” featuring all the story’s unforgettable animals in a hand-clapping, toe-tapping hoe-down, and “Summer,” a haunting, nostalgic chorus number which evokes a time and place from everyone’s childhood.

Shows are Jan. 22, 28 and 29 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $5.
