Imagine yourself in a world of chocolate, where everything you see is a delight to the eyes and the taste buds.  Well, prepare to give your sweet tooth a workout- and have the time of your life

  Join the expedition visiting
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, the spendiferous movie version of Ronald Dahl's scrumptious children's classic.  Coated with a wonderful Leslie Bricusse/Anthony Newley score including the hit tunes "The Candy Man" and "Pure Imagination," this marvelous musical never fails to enchant young and old.

  It all starts when candy mogul (Gene Wilder) offers a grand prize tour of his factory to five lucky contest winners, which includes Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) and his Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson).  By the time it's over, they've had fun, made mischief and learned that sweetness of heart is better than all the candy in the world.  Hop aboard! The Candy Man's spread the welcome mat for you.
