Willy Wonka Jr. follows enigmatic candy manufacturer Willy Wonka as he stages a contest by hiding golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. The golden ticket winners receive a free tour of the Wonka factory as well as a lifetime supply of candy. Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats, but the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket, who takes the tour in the company of his equally amiable grandfather. The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory or suffer the consequences.

Directed by Arlington resident Michele Clifford with choreography by Christopher Cavallo, the production features two casts of 65 local students from nine surrounding communities.

Tickets are $20. Visit www.menotomymusicaltheater.com.
