Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka KIDS

Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka KIDS

Roald Dahl's timeless story of the world-famous candy man and his quest to find an heir is a golden ticket to adventure.

The delicious adventures experienced by Charlie Bucket on his visit to Willy Wonka's mysterious chocolate factory light up the stage in this captivating adaptation of Roald Dahl's fantastical tale. Featuring the enchanting songs from the 1971 film starring Gene Wilder, in addition to a host of fun new songs, Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka KIDS is a scrumdidilyumptious musical guaranteed to delight everyone's sweet tooth.

Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka KIDS follows enigmatic candy manufacturer Willy Wonka as he stages a contest by hiding golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whomever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy. Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats, but the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket, who takes the tour in the company of his equally amiable grandfather. The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory — or suffer the consequences.

Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka KIDS has a flexible cast size with many featured and ensemble roles, including the singing and dancing Oompa-Loompas.

This title is ONLY available for amateur groups to license and ONLY in North America.

Can you reuse materials?

If I purchased a Showkit in the past, can I reuse that same Showkit, including student books, in future productions? Or do I need to purchase a new Showkit?
These prosecutions would be multiple years apart.

Willy Wonka Jr / Kids

Hello,

One of the elementary school theatre classes our program teaches is interested in doing Willy Wonka in the fall for their after school theatre show. In choosing which version though, I was wondering if you could tell me a little more about the difference between the Jr. and Kids versions? Thanks so much!

cost of rights to perform

Hi. I purchased Willy Wonka Kids several years ago and wanted to perform it again. What would it cost to have to rights to do that again? We would do 2 shows with an audience of 100 people each night. We charge $6/ticket at our school.

Thanks in advance.
