Lena-Winslow to Present Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on March 28, 29 and 30

(Lena, IL) - Lena-Winslow High School will present Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on Friday, March 28 and Saturday, March 29 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, March 30 at 2 p.m.

"This show has been like a Golden Ticket inviting us to take the time to dream, believe, and embrace the extraordinary parts of our lives, which is exactly what our cast and crew have been hard at work doing throughout the production process of this show!" said Director Renee Schultz.

This year, Le-Win's high school talent will join forces with junior high and elementary students to bring this new show to life. This musical production offers a fresh take on the original story, based on the novel by Roald Dahl.

The world-famous W***y Wonka, played by Junior Josiah Randecker, will open the gates to his mysterious factory to a lucky few. Young Charlie Bucket, played by Senior Hannah Pecoraro, and four other golden ticket winners will embark on a life-changing journey through Wonka’s world of pure imagination including chocolate waterfalls, nutty squirrels and the great glass elevator, all to be revealed by Wonka's army of curious Oompa-Loompas.

"We have some seasoned talent as well as a great number of younger students who are debuting on the stage. Students as young as first grade make up the Oompa Loompas, and they bring such joy and energy to the cast," said Schultz.
