Willy Wonka the Musical

Based on Gene Wilder’s Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971), the play, Willy Wonka brings the story to the stage in this musical adaptation. Included in this production are some of the classic songs from the Oscar-nominated family film such as “Pure Imagintaion” and “Candy Man”, as well as new songs from Leslie Bricusse (who composed the film). The musical was originally intended to help promote the newly formed Willy Wonka’s Candy Company film, adapted from Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which became a cult classic and has gone on to become one of the most beloved titles in the history of children’s cinema.
