For the first time in a decade, Willy
Wonka, the reclusive and eccentric chocolate maker, is opening his doors
to the public--well, five members of the public to be exact. The lucky
five who find a Golden Ticket in their Wonka chocolate bars will receive
a private tour of the factory, given by Mr. Wonka himself. For young
Charlie Bucket, this a dream come true. And, when he finds a dollar bill
in the street, he can't help but buy two Wonka's Whipple-Scrumptious
Fudgemallow Delights--even though his impoverished family could
certainly use the extra dollar for food. But as Charlie unwraps the
second chocolate bar, he sees the glimmer of gold just under the
wrapper! The very next day, Charlie, along with his unworthy fellow
winners Mike Teavee, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, and Augustus Gloop,
steps through the factory gates to discover whether or not the rumors
surrounding the Chocolate Factory and its mysterious owner are true.
What they find is that the gossip can't compare to the extraordinary
truth, and for Charlie, life will never be the same again.
Who wouldn't want to join Charlie
Bucket in his adventurous tour of Willy Wonka's world-famous Chocolate
Factory? Now is your chance! Augustus Gloop, Violet Beauregarde,
Veruca Salt, Grandpa George, Grandma Georgina, Willy Wonka and Charlie
himself come to life, and all involved will discover the true meaning of
teamwork, self-confidence and self-esteem. Each cast member will have a
role that promotes a special understanding of other people as they
experience a chocolate-candy fantasy. The delicious fun of Willy
Wonka's Chocolate Factory awaits you!
It is our goal to cast as many roles
as possible as the actual age portrayed in the play and film. We
are looking for older adults to play the grandparents, 20-40 for the
parents, and older children or young teens to play the main child roles.
Final cast ages will be determined by the age and number of people
auditioning.
Auditions will be cold reading
from script.
Performance dates will be June 19,
20, 21, 26, 27, 28 at 8:00 pm, and June 22 and 29 at 2:30 pm.
