Wilbur's Web, is an amazing opportunity for students, siblings, parents, and community members that our theatre is creating during this time of social distancing. Our annual Live Literature program that was scheduled for the end of April just isn't possible for us to continue with what we've done in the past, so we have decided to do what no other theatre or program has done yet during this time. We have written and adapted a full length show (30 minutes) that has become a digital/virtual "film" version of the story for families. Our plan is to make this "movie" version of the show accessible to EVERYONE! This will be made available early next month, and there will be options to make a charitable gift to the Theatre to help us offset the cost of producing this digital event.
