Welcome to the world of pure imagination with this tasty Broadway and West End musical based on the famous novel and hit movie.

Music Theatre International has secured worldwide licensing rights to the Broadway musical Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and now community theatres across Australia have the golden ticket to license this magical musical!

Based on the famous novel by Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory features an original score composed by Marc Shaiman with lyrics by Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray) and a book by David Greig. The score also pays homage to the Leslie Bricusse/Anthony Newley score from the 1971 film with songs from the Motion Picture including "Candy Man," "I've Got a Golden Ticket," "Oompa Loompa Song," and "Pure Imagination."

Drew Cohen, MTI's President and CEO remarked, "This long-awaited version of Roald Dahl's story happily delivers in every way, pleasing loyalists of the book and of the film alike, while offering a fresh, new take on the material. With a heart-warming--and raucously funny--script and score, and plum roles for every type of performer, Charlie is destined to quickly become a ubiquitous staple in the world of musical licensing. Get your Oompa-Loompas ready!"
