Description:

Eccentric candy maker, Willy Wonka, has hidden five golden tickets beneath the wrappers of his famous Wonka bars. The people who find these lucky tickets will get a once and a lifetime tour of the most mysterious and amazing candy factory in the world. Join Willy Wonka and his staff of Oompa Loompas as they lead ticket winners Charlie, the gluttonous Augustus Gloop, gum-chewing Violet Beauregarde, television junkie Mike Teevee, and spoiled-rotten Veruca Salt through a maze of chocolate rivers, life lessons, and laughs. Based on the book CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY by Roald Dahl, WILLY WONKA is a scrumptious musical treat for the entire family.
