Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
The Media Theatre · Media, PA
A family-friendly matinee performance of the Roald Dahl musical Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, staged at Media's historic 1927 playhouse during its holiday-season run.
Expect a lively, kid-heavy matinee crowd filing into a 440-seat historic playhouse for a full-scale local production of the Wonka musical, complete with Oompa-Loompa numbers and stage spectacle. The tone is relaxed and intergenerational — grandparents, parents, and children together — with the show running as a straightforward, easygoing afternoon outing rather than a late-night or formal affair. Arriving early gives time to settle in and catch any opening-day extras like the Wonka bar giveaway mentioned in the venue's promotion.
