BREVARD COUNTY • VIERA, FLORIDA – The Viera Studio for the Performing Arts will present two performances of Willy Wonka Jr. on Sunday at Merritt Island High School, located at 100 E. Mustang Way. Show times are 2:30 and 7:30 p.m.

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 JR. is a “scrumdidilyumptious” musical guaranteed to delight everyone’s sweet tooth.

Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka JR. 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.

Tickets are $10. The production is presented in association with Musical Theatre International Jr., and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Children’s Hunger Project.
