Synopsis
A wry and amusing musical about a world famous
candymaker who hides five golden tickets in candy bars for
five lucky children. Young, good-natured Charlie (Peter
Ostrum) wins one of the tickets hidden amongst thousands of
Wonka chocolate bars. What have Charlie and the other four
kids won? A tour through Willy Wonka's chocolate factory,
led by the loveable, eccentric, but often mean-spirited
Wonka (Gene Wilder) himself. The factory itself is like a
fantasy world: crazy color schemes, wild inventions, secret
rooms, busy oompa-loompas, and lots and lots of delectable
sweets. But Wonka has a hidden agenda, and during the tour
he tests each child's character and honesty. Based on Roald
Dahl's children's book "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."
