2024 – ANTIC’s 41st Season

Snow White and the Z’s

Show Info: April 26th, 27th and May 3rd, 4th

Synopsis

Despite the efforts of the Z’s, a group of good fairies (Zabrina, Zanth, Zinda, Zaria, Zelda, Zoe and Zellie), Princess Tara falls prey to a curse from the wicked fairy, Xenia. The curse is that when Tara turns 16 she will prick her finger and she and everyone in the whole castle will sleep for a hundred years. Determined that no one ever wake Tara, Xenia conjures up a horrible ogre, enlists the aid of her terrible trolls and exploits a two-headed spider. A hundred years later, greedy Prince Egbert and lazy Prince Smedley, accompanied by their hard-working page, Jason, attempt to reach the princess. Smedley and Egbert cannot awaken her, but Jason’s hesitant kiss does. In fact, a few other kisses turn some other unsavory characters into beautiful people! Just when the story should end happily, however, Xenia appears and the nightmare begins again — but not for long!

Charlotte’s Web

Written by: E.B. White and adapted by Joseph Robinette
Directed by: Patricia Stupi 

Show Info: Fridays & Saturdays November 15th, 16th, 22nd, & 23rd, box office opens at 6:30, curtain at 7:00pm

Synopsis

The Children’s Literature Association named this “the best American children’s book of the past two hundred years,” and Joseph Robinette, working with the advice of E.B. White, has created a play that captures this work in a thrilling and utterly practical theatrical presentation. The costumes and unit set may be simple or as colorful and elaborate as you wish; it’s the story and relationships that make the show. All the enchanting characters are here: Wilbur, the irresistible young pig who desperately wants to avoid the butcher; Fern, a girl who understands what animals say to each other; Templeton, the gluttonous rat who can occasionally be talked into a good deed; the Zuckerman family; the Arables; and, most of all, the extraordinary spider, Charlotte, who proves to be “a true friend and a good writer.” Determined to save Wilbur, Charlotte begins her campaign with the “miracle” of her web in which she writes, “Some pig.” It’s the beginning of a victorious campaign which ultimately ends with the now-safe Wilbur doing what is most important to Charlotte. This is a beautiful, knowing play about friendship that will give your actors a great opportunity and your audience an evening of enchantment.
