ZACH Theatre – An Austin Theatre Blog

On Saturdays April 11 and 18 at 12:30 and 3pm, 23 students, ages 8-12, will perform the musical adaptation of the book with all the songs from the classic movie Willy Wonka — and nine new music numbers written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley especially for the show!

Directed by Jaclyn Loewenstein and adapted for the stage by Leslie Bricusse and Timothy A. McDonald, the show is being presented under an exclusive arrangement with Music Theatre International.

You don’t have to buy a zillion Wonka bars to get in or be the luckiest kid in the world like Charlie: These golden tickets are a bargain at only $10 for adults and $8 for children. You can reserve your tour of the chocolate factory with our box office, open noon to 7pm, by calling (512) 476-0541, x1.

And, hot off the press, one oompa loompa just leaked these pictures from inside the factory:

This play runs approximately 75 minutes and is suitable for children ages 4 and up.
