Fall Musical (1-4 Grade)

Welcome to Roots’ School of Theatre  children’s theatre for young performers in grades 1st – 4th.  This theatre acting class/production is designed for our early readers.  Our musical theatre productions are very special as we only accept 20 or fewer actors per production (depending on the show) to ensure quality of instruction for each young actor.  All young performers are guaranteed a speaking role in the production as well as singing and dancing throughout the entire show.

Willy Wonka Kids

August – December 2023

Lyrics & Music By: Leslie Burcusse & Anthony Newley
Adapted for the stage By: Leslie Burcusse & Timothy Allen McDonald

Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka KIDS 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.
