Tickets on Sale for 'Charlotte's Web'

Tickets are now on sale in Bradford and at new outlets throughout the county for Bradford Little Theatre’s production of “Charlotte’s Web” to be performed at Otto-Eldred Junior-Senior High School Oct. 21-23.

Joseph Robinette’s adaptation of the tale about a friendship between Wilbur the pig and Charlotte the spider remains “true to the spirit and intent of the original,” said author E.B. White.

Director Nanci K. Garris says the family-friendly children’s classic will be shown to great advantage in the Duke Center school’s new lobby and art deco style auditorium.

“This is our first production outside Bradford proper in years,” said Garris, BLT president. “We hope it will draw audiences from all over the county, and that Bradford patrons will make the short 12-mile drive.”

“Our cast is drawn from Smethport, Duke Center, Eldred and Bradford in Pennsylvania, and from Allegany, N.Y.,” she noted.

Tickets for “Charlotte’s Web” are available at the usual Bradford outlets of Graham Florist, Ott and McHenry Pharmacy, and Tina’s Hallmark. For the first time, BLT tickets are also available in Duke Center at Cochran’s Superette and The Hair Shed; in Smethport and Eldred at Costa’s Supermarkets; and in Port Allegany at Bridgeport Academy.

They are also available from cast and crew members or online at www.bradfordlittletheatre.com. The play will be performed on Friday, Oct. 21at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Oct. 22 at 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, Oct. 23 at 2 p.m.

Bought in advance tickets will cost $9 each. Tickets purchased at the door will cost $10 for adults, and $9 for students and senior citizens. Patrons must buy tickets for a specific performance.
