Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
The Media Theatre · Media, PA
A regional production of the Broadway musical version of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, staged at The Media Theatre during the holiday season.
Expect a full-scale musical staging of Wonka's factory with colorful sets, big production numbers, and a cast that includes young performers alongside adult leads — the kind of show where kids in the audience recognize every beat and adults catch the humor. The 440-seat historic theater keeps it intimate enough that the golden-ticket moments land without much distance from the stage. As a late-December evening performance, it draws families and grandparents on holiday outings, so the room feels festive and multigenerational rather than formal.
