Charlotte Prep Presents Willy Wonka Jr.
April 11th, 2024
You've got a golden ticket! Don't miss your chance to step through the gates of Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory on April 19 and 20 at 6:30 p.m. in our gym. Our annual 3rd-8th grade musical is a true display of the talent and hard work of our students and they are proud to present Willy Wonka Junior this year.
Our students have rehearsed more than 150 hours to perfect every aspect of this production. Our talented cast has immersed themselves in their roles, and the hardworking members of the set design club and stage crew have transformed our gymnasium into a world of pure imagination!
Students are involved in every detail; our set design club and stage crew are essential parts of the production.
It takes an army... of oompa loompas!
Here's what some of the cast have to say about the experience:
"The dedication and talent of our fellow students has truly shone throughout the rehearsal process. We've all put in so much effort, and I'm excited for everyone to see the result of our hard work." - Levi S.
"Being a part of this production has been an incredible experience. It's amazing to see how much we've grown as performers and how everything has come together to create something truly special." - Mackenzie M.
Beloved director Ms. Davis and music director Ms. Moscati are leading the show.
"Come and see our magical performance filled with the sweetest things life has to offer," says Ms. Davis. All attendees will have the opportunity to test their luck at finding a golden ticket! At each performance, "Wonka Bars" will be sold during intermission. One lucky winner will find a golden ticket entitling them to a photo shoot with the cast on stage after the performance!
We invite you to join us for an evening of entertainment and appreciation as we witness the talents of our students and celebrate the culmination of months of hard work. Come support our talented students and witness the magic of live theater! We can't wait to share this unforgettable experience with you.
