Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - the New Musical!

Playing at the Paramount Theatre thru August 11th!

July 24, 2019


Roald Dahl’s CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY 

Playing at The Paramount Theatre through August 11.


Roald Dahl’s CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY  tells the story of Willy Wonka, world famous inventor of the Everlasting Gobstopper, who has just made an astonishing announcement. His marvelous—and mysterious—factory is opening its gates…to a lucky few. That includes young Charlie Bucket, whose life definitely needs sweetening. He and four other golden ticket winners will embark on a mesmerizing, life-changing journey through Wonka’s world of pure imagination. Get ready for Oompa-Loompas, incredible inventions, the great glass elevator, and more, more, more at this everlasting showstopper!




The hit Broadway musical features songs from the original film, including "Pure Imagination," "The Candy Man," and "I've Got a Golden Ticket," alongside a toe-tapping and ear-tickling new score from the songwriters from Hairspray.


Publisher Note:  My daughter and I were given the opportunity to attend the opening show.  We were both in awe of the creative props and imagery as well as the block buster performances by the entire cast - especially Charlie! An unbelievably talented young actor - I'm sure we'll see him in many more productions to come!

**IMPORTANT TO KNOW** The musical includes Dahl's darker themes just as the book, some characters' back stories have been updated to include scenes touching on mental illness, substance use/abuse and minor violence.  I'd recommend the show for mature kids 12 and up and to be prepared to field questions from your little Macaronis!
