About the show

Chocolate.
Quite simply, the greatest invention in the entire history of the world.

The world-famous 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.

Featuring all your favourite songs including “Candy Man”, “I’ve got a golden ticket” and “Pure Imagination” and based on the famous novel, hit movie and the current Broadway and West-end musical, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory JR brings Roald Dahl’s outrageously unforgettable characters to life in a delicious comical adventure.
