Chesterton High School will present, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, based on the book by Roald Dahl and dramatized by Richard R. George as this year’s Family Theatre Production.

This year’s show revolves around Five Golden Tickets, five lucky winners, and a tour of Willy Wonka's wonderful chocolate factory - what could possibly go wrong? And what does it all mean for Charlie, anyway? Master Chocolatier and Candyman Extraordinaire Willy Wonka has finally opened his mysterious factory for a one-day, once-in-a-lifetime event. Charlie and his beloved Grandpa Joe join four other children and their loved ones as they explore the weird and wacky world of Wonka, learning along the way that actions have consequences, and that character counts.
