Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Roald Dahl’s CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, Spokane Civic Theatre’s 75th Season closing production, plays May 26 – June 18 on the Main Stage.

The confectionary wizard, 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 including semi-dark chocolate waterfalls, exquisitely nutty squirrels and the great glass elevator.

Based on the beloved novel by Roald Dahl, CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY features an original score by Marc Shaiman, with lyrics by Shaiman and Scott Wittman (HAIRSPRAY), and a book by David Greig. The score pays homage to the Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley songs from the 1971 motion picture, including “Candy Man,” “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket” and “Pure Imagination.”
