Play Description:
Celebrate the power of friendship and the enduring impact of kindness. When Wilbur
is born smaller than most pigs, it’s his friendships that save his life in more ways
than one. This treasured tale weaves a timeless message of love, friendship, and loss
in Robinette’s faithful adaptation of the beloved novel by E.B. White. From Charlotte’s
selfless acts of kindness to Wilbur’s journey to find belonging, it’s the bonds we
share with others that make life truly meaningful.
About the Drama Program
Drama at Lower Columbia College offers courses designed to provide students with an
understanding of the theatre and an appreciation of theatre, acting, technical theatre,
and production experience through performance. Students develop the ability to express
themselves in many ways: acting on stage, seminar discussion, play analysis, review
writing, script interpretation, kinesthetic expression, and technical proficiency
in set, costume, and light design.
One play is presented each quarter during the academic year. Participation is open
to all students, college employees, and members of the local community.
Students interested in acting can complete an associate degree or begin studies to
transfer to a baccalaureate program. Drama courses can also be an important supplement
for those who plan to major in the humanities or social sciences.
Act One Drama Club
If you don't think you are ready for auditions or feel like it is too big of a time
commitment, think about becoming involved in our Act One Drama Club that produces our performances. Act One includes everyone involved in drama at the college. Members are actively involved
in producing a Center Stage Theater production each quarter.
