A deliciously imaginative musical based on Roald Dahl’s beloved story, Willy Wonka KIDS follows young Charlie Bucket and his kind-hearted grandfather on a magical journey through a world of sweets, surprises, and singing Oompa Loompas. Charlie is one of five lucky children to win a golden ticket and a tour of the mysterious Wonka Chocolate Factory. But as the tour unfolds, the children quickly learn that following Mr. Wonka’s rules is the only way to avoid some very unexpected consequences.
