About the Show

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.

Program Structure

Over the course of ten engaging sessions, children will develop their singing, dancing, and acting skills while building confidence and essential performance techniques. Together, they’ll bring an officially licensed musical to life in a memorable final performance.

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know one another and understanding the importance of ensemble work. Together, we’ll begin learning a group number in a supportive, collaborative environment.

Roles will be assigned based on participation and enthusiasm during this session—no formal auditions required, making the process fun and stress-free. Every child will have the opportunity to shine in their own unique role.

Throughout the remaining sessions, the group will work together to bring the show to life. We’ll celebrate every child’s creativity and progress.

Our program culminates in a special performance for friends and family during our final session.

Program Expectations

At our children’s educational programs, fun and creativity take centre stage! To make sure every participant has a fantastic experience, we follow a few important guidelines.

Respect

Children are expected to show respect for their fellow participants, instructors, and the environment we share.

Kindness & Support

Our programs thrive on teamwork and friendship. Every child is encouraged to uplift and support their peers. Bullying or unkind behaviour of any kind is not tolerated—our goal is to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone to shine.

Hard Work & Commitment

Participation is key! While sessions are designed to be fun and engaging, we also emphasize effort. Children are expected to enthusiastically participate in learning their scenes, songs, and choreography during rehearsals. Outside of class, there’s minimal homework—just memorizing lines and practicing to be ready for the next session.

Following these guidelines creates a positive, supportive environment where children can grow in confidence, build friendships, and develop valuable skills both on and off the stage.
