The confectionary wizard, Willy Wonka, is opening the gates to his mysterious factory…but only to a lucky few. Young Charlie Bucket and four other golden ticket winners will embark on a life-changing journey through Wonka’s world of pure imagination including semi-dark chocolate waterfalls, exquisitely nutty squirrels and the great glass elevator.
Based on the famous novel by Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory features an original score by Marc Shaiman, with lyrics by Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray), and a book by David Greig. The score pays homage to the Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley songs from the 1971 motion picture, including “Candy Man,” “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket” and “Pure Imagination.”
Spokane Civic Theatre will be one of the first community or regional theatres in the world to present a non-professional production of this adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, through special arrangement with Music Theatre International.
Directed by Troy Nickerson
Music Directed by Henry McNulty
