https://www.orpheusmusicaltheatre.ca/charlieandthechocolatefactory Interview with Sam Castro (Charlie Bucket): https://youtu.be/pDfRJBP9tw4 November 15 - 24, 2024 Meridian Theatres @ Centrepointe Based on the novel by Roald Dahl Book by David Greig Music by Marc Shaiman Lyrics by Marc Shaiman & Scott Whitman Songs from the Motion Picture by Leslie Bricusse & Anthony Newley ABOUT THE SHOW Based on the famous novel by Roald Dahl. When young Charlie wins a golden ticket to the mysterious Wonka Chocolate Factory, it's the chance of a lifetime to feast on the sweets and chocolates that have always been right under his nose but unaffordable for the Bucket family. Could it also be his family’s route out of poverty? Along with the other winners--Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, Mike Teavee, and Augustus Gloop--Charlie is swept inside of the mysterious factory with his Grandpa Joe. Inside, the winners encounter a magical world full of amazement, innovation, sugary treats, and, of course, Oompa-Loompas. But as the winners begin to let their greed and selfish nature's get the better of them, it seems that everything is not as sweet as it seems. Finally, Charlie is the last child standing--the only child not to have succumbed to the sweet temptations of Willy Wonka’s magical world. His humble, loyal nature has not gone unnoticed by Mr. Wonka, and Charlie’s reward is more than he could ever have dreamed. Performances: Tuesday through Saturday (7:30 p.m.) and Sunday matinees (2 p.m.) Running time: 2 hours and 25 minutes including one 20 minute intermission (approx.) |
