Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the golden ticket musical that’s delighted audiences across Broadway and the West End! Based on Roald Dahl’s beloved story, this spectacular stage adaptation features songs from the classic 1971 film — including Pure Imagination, The Candy Man and I’ve Got a Golden Ticket — alongside dazzling new music by the Grammy, Tony and Olivier Award-winning team behind Hairspray.
When Charlie Bucket wins a once-in-a-lifetime tour of Willy Wonka’s mysterious chocolate factory, he and four other lucky children embark on a journey full of wonder, mischief and pure imagination.
From the Christchurch producers of Mamma Mia!, Kinky Boots and Matilda The Musical, this extraordinary production promises magic, laughter and a world of surprises for the whole family.
Don’t miss your chance to step inside the factory – get your golden ticket today!
