Auditions for Charlotte's Web
Auditions are December 15 and 18 in Middletown for actors and movers ages 12 - 14 looking for an exciting and dynamic performance experience this winter.
Oddfellows Playhouse Junior Repertory Company 2026 announces auditions for Charlotte’s Web , directed by Dan Schmidt.
Based on E.B White’s 1952 young adult novel, the production will use the dramatic adaptation by Joseph Robinette. A heartwarming story about friendship, loyalty, and the cycle of life, Charlotte's Web centers around a pig named Wilbur and his unlikely friendship with a kind, wise spider named Charlotte. When Wilbur is in danger of being slaughtered, Charlotte uses her web-weaving skills to write messages in the barn’s rafters, convincing the world that Wilbur is “Terrific” and “Some Pig,” and saving his life. As she helps Wilbur find a new home and future, Charlotte must also face her own mortality. Charlotte’s Web is a tale of true compassion, sacrifice, and the beauty of small acts of kindness.
