About The Musical:
​
Satisfy your sweet-tooth with this modern musical remake of Roald Dahl's classic children's novel. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a song-filled, dance packed feast of "Pure Imagination" with a book by David Greig, music by Marc Shaiman, lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman. Willy Wonka is everywhere and he and some of his Oompas move the story forward.
Charlie Bucket, an odd, imaginative boy with a knack for making something out of nothing, dreams of acquiring a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka's over-the-top chocolate factory. He can't believe his luck when it actually happens. Fellow contest winners include the gluttonous, Augustus Gloop, Daddy's spoiled rotten princess, Veruca Salt, chewing gum celebrity, Violet Beauregarde; and over-amped computer hacker, Mike Teavee. These children and those who accompany them have no idea what they're getting themselves into. They each learn lessons about selfishness and greed from Wonka, who is whimsical but ambiguously dangerous. You'll devour this family-friendly adventure in Wonka's factory like you've never experienced before. Our version is a unique treat. It "must be believed to be seen!"
