MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Willy Wonka is a magical, mysterious musical masterpiece that shows that deliciously delectable dreams can come true. The show mixes the wonderful ingredients of comedy and drama with “surprises around every corner.” Willy and his Oompa-Loompas lead Charlie, Augustus, Violet, Veruca, and Mike through a labyrinth of chocolate rivers, lemon drops, and life lessons. We are happy to have you with us in this world of “Pure Imagination.” Think about how many ingredients and how many cooks were involved in serving up this culinary stage treat, and think about getting in the kitchen with us – in whatever way you want or can. There is always room for more!
