WILLY WONKA TYA
Words and Music by Leslie Bricusse & Anthony Newley Adapted for the stage by Leslie Bricusse & Timothy A. McDonald Based on the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka follows enigmatic candy manufacturer Willy Wonka as he stages a contest by hiding golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whomever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy! Willy Wonka touches on the troubles that are brought about when people are left to be spoiled and bossy, and also shows how you can make beautiful things with a touch of pure imagination.
This upcoming season, join us, Charlie Bucket, and the Oompa Loompas for a giganticus, swashboggling, scrumdiddlyumptious, raucously good time!
