Willy Wonka was the Week Four
play this year! Everyone worked really hard on it, and it was
fantastic. |
 |
The show started out with Willy
Wonka, a candy maker. He decided to allow five children to tour his factory
if they could find a golden ticket in one of his candy bars. |
|
Meanwhile, a young boy named
Charlie was living with his entire family, and they were struggling to get
by. |
 |
 |
Charlie was sad every day when
all the other children could buy candy from the Candy Man, and he couldn't. |
|
He watched the other kids in
agony, wishing he could buy sweets for himself, or food for his family. |
 |
 |
The Candy Man was sympathetic to
Charlie. He would occasionally supply him with a treat, free of charge. |
|
Charlie and his family would read
the news and find out about what was happening. They learned about the kids
that were finding the golden tickets every day. |
 |
|
All the winners would be
interviewed with a parent or guardian every day. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Soon, it was Charlie's birthday.
His Grandpa Joe had been saving up and bought him a candy bar in hopes that
Charlie would win the tour and the lifetime supply of chocolate. However, he
didn't win. |
|
Soon winter came. One day,
Charlie found a gold coin buried in the snow. The Candy Man let him buy some
candy. |
 |
 |
CHARLIE FOUND THE LAST GOLDEN
TICKET IN THE CANDY BAR HE BOUGHT! |
|
It was time for the tour. Willy
Wonka led them around his factory and showed all the visitors what happened
there. |
 |
 |
Unfortunately despite his urgent
instructions and rules, the children were all tempted and tried his new
inventions. |
|
The Oompah Loompahs came out, to
sing and dance. |
 |
 |
They told the visitors that they
should once again listen and pay attention. |
|
Unfortunately, the children
continued to not listen to directions. |
 |
 |
Sadly, Veruca Salt was turned
into a blueberry after eating gum she was told not to eat. |
|
The Oompah Loompahs repeated
themselves and their message once again. |
 |
 |
Sadly, Charlie couldn't resist
temptations and had to try a fizzy drink. The bubbles made him and Grandpa
Joe rise into the air and the only way to get down was to burp. They joined
the group again, thinking that no one had noticed. |
|
Next to be taken away was Violet.
She was declared a bad nut by the squirrels. |
 |
 |
The Oompahs Loompahs came out one
last time to leave their very final warning. |
|
The last child to go was Mike T.V.
after obeying instructions not to touch a new television. He was turned into
the doll sized version of himself. |
 |
|
 |
The tour was concluded. But
instead of leaving with his lifetime supply of chocolate, he confessed to
trying the fizzy drink. Willy Wonka was so pleased, he told Charlie the real
reason for the tours. He wanted to find his successor, and he decided that
Charlie was perfect for the role! |
|
Congrats again, to the cast,
crew, and directors. And a big thank you for everyone who helped. |
