Narrator 1- Welcome to the tale of a delicious adventure in a wonderful land. You can
tell it will be delicious - can’t you smell it already?
Narrator 2- [Sniffs] Oh how I love that gorgeous smell! You’ve all heard of Cadburys,
Nestles, Hershey, and Wonka - What’s that??
Narrator 1 - You mean you don't know what Wonka is? I admit that Willy Wonka’s
Chocolate is fairly new but it’s also the greatest chocolate ever invented
Narrator 2 - Willy Wonka himself is the most amazing, the most fantastic, the most extra
ordinary chocolate maker the world has ever seen.
Narrator 1- He’s invented things like....
Narrator 2 - We’re not going to tell you what's he’s invented. You came to see for
yourself!
Narrator 1 - but before you do that, we should perhaps fill you in on what’s been
happening around here lately.
Narrator 2 - Because Mr. Willy Wonka makes the best chocolate in the whole wide
world, three other chocolate makers known as
Narrator 1- Mr. Fickelgurber, Mr. Prodnose
Narrator 2- And Mr. Slugworth sent spies to work for Mr. Wonka in order to discover his
secrets
Narrator 1 - Soon after, these three chocolate makers begin making such delicious
Wonka Ice cream
Narrator 2 - that never melts
Narrator 1 - Chewing Gum
Narrator 2 - that never loses its flavour. Mr Wonka didn't know what to do.
Narrator 1 - So he did the only thing he could; he sent the entire workers home and
closed the factory.
Narrator 2 - You might think that that would be the end of Willy Wonka but no.
Narrator 1 - After months and months went by, the factory suddenly began operating
again.
Narrator 2 - But nobody knew who was running the place

Narrator 1 - Nobody ever went in and nobody ever came out. The only thing anyone
could see were shadows dancing around in front of the lighted windows. Mighty strange!
Narrator 2 - Well. Getting back to the story. There was a big article in the town paper
saying that Mr. Willy Wonka in order to sell a lot of candy once again was running a
contest!
Narrator 1 - He had secretly wrapped Golden Ticket under ordinary Wrapping paper in
five ordinary candy bars.
Narrator 2 - The candy bars were said to be found anywhere.in any shop...in any
street ...in any town...in any country in the world
Narrator 1 - The five winners will tour Mr Wonka’s new factory and take home enough
chocolate for the rest of their lives.
Narrator 2 - Now that, my friends, is where our story begins

SCENE 1

Newsreader - Hi I am ________from CNBC. Four of the tickets have already been

found. Would you like to meet the lucky people? I think they’re somewhere here [Looks
out over audience]
Lets see ... Augustus Gloop!! Where are you Augustus Gloop?
Augustus Gloop - Chocolate...Chocolate.... Chocolate ...CHOCOLATE!!!! I....
LOVE...CHOCOLATE!
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...food...FOOD!!!!!

Newsreader - So Augustus tell us how do you feel?
Augustus Gloop- I am eating a Wonka Bar and I taste something that is not chocolate …
or coconut …or …peanut butter or nougat or peanut butter or caramel or sprinkles, so I
look and I found the Golden Ticket
Newsreader - So how did you celebrate?

Augustus Gloop - I eat more candy. This Golden Ticket is my meal too…
Newsreader - Well, uh, friends, that was our first Golden Ticket Finder - Augustus
Gloop. Let’s see if the lucky girl who found our second Golden Ticket is here. Oh
Violet ...Violet Beauregarde?
Violet Beauregarde - [chewing ferociously on gum, waving arms excitedly, talking in a
rapid and loud manner, from somewhere in audience]
I’m a gum chewer normally, but when I heard about these ticket things
of Mr. Wonka’s, I lay off the gum and switched to candy bars in the hope of striking it
lucky. Now, of course, I’m right back on gum. I just adore gum. I can't do without it. I
munch it all day long except for a few minutes at mealtimes when I take it out and stick
it behind my ear for safekeeping.
You know this piece of gum I’m chewing right at this moment is one I’ve been working
on for over 3 months. That’s a record, that is.
Newsreader - Such a, uh, lucky, uh girl. Isn’t she uh uh Wonderful?
Another lucky girl found the third Golden ticket. Her name is Veruca Salt. Is Veruca
here now?
Veruca Salt - Where’s my Golden Ticket? I wan my Golden Ticket! Oh yes...here it is!
As soon as I told my father that I simply had to have one of those Golden Ticket, he went
out in the town and started buying up all the Wonka Bars he could lay his hands on.
Thousands of them, he must have bought. Hundreds of thousands!
He’s in the peanut business, you see, and he's got about a hundred women working for
him - shelling peanuts for roasting and salting. That’s what they do all day long, those
women ...they just sit there shelling peanuts.
So he says to them, ‘ok you stop shelling peanuts and start shelling wrappers of these
crazy bars instead. And they did.
But three days went by, and we had no luck. Oh...it was terrible!
I got more and more upset each day, and every time he came home I would scream at
him, ‘ where’s my Golden Ticket! I want my Golden Ticket!’ And i would lie for hours
on the floor, kicking and yelling in the most disturbing way.

Then suddenly, on the 4th day, one of his workers yelled, ‘ I’ve got it!’ And my father
said Give to me, quick! He rushed home and gave to me, and now ...i am all smiles and
we have a happy home once again.
Newsreader - Thank you, Veruca. Isn’t she a lovely girl? Now a boy named Mike Teavee
found the fourth and. I wonder if Mike’s got his ticket with him? Where are you, Mike?
Mike Teavee [From somewhere in audience] - Of course I’ve got a Golden Ticket, but
why can’t everyone leave me alone? I want to watch television!! [He pulls out the
gameboy] I watch all of the shows everyday. I like the gangsters best. They’re terrific.
Newsreader - Well, Mike Teavee Which is your favorite Wonka candy?
Mike - Candies! I hate Candies
Newsreader - And that folks is, uh, Mike Teavee. Sorry for, uh, bothering you, Mike.
Newsreader - At last the last Golden Ticket has been found. Everyone lets cheers for
Charlie bucket
Charlie - Thank you. I feel very lucky to find the Golden Ticket! It says ‘ Greetings to
you, the lucky finder of this Golden Ticket, from Mr. Willy Wonka! I shake you warmly
by the hand! Tremendous things are in store for you!
Violet- For now I do invite you to come to my factory and be my guest for one whole
day - you and all others who are lucky enough to find my Golden Tickets.
Veruca- I, Willy Wonka, will conduct you around the factory myself, showing you
everything that there is to see, and afterwards, when it is time to leave, You will be
escorted home by a procession of large trucks.
Mike-These trucks, I can promise you, will be loaded with enough delicious eatables. In
your wildest dreams you could not imagine that such things could happen to you! Just
wait and watch

AG- I’m tired! It seems like we’ve been turning left, turning right, turning left and
turning right again for a whole hour or so. When are we going to eat? I’m hungry! I
want to eat now! Do you all hear me? Now!!!!

Charlie - Did you notice that we’ve been going downward for the longest time,
WW- Here we are everybody! This is the Chocolate Room. This room is the nerve center
of the whole factory
AG - UHHH.I don’t see anything but that old river over there. Where’s the food?? I’m
hungry
Violet- And Just looks at those enormous pipes over there. There must be ten or eleven
of them. I wonder what they’re for?
Charlie - Gee, Mr. Wonka, What’s wrong with your river? It’s all brown and Muddy
Looking
WW- Nothing wrong with it, my boy! Nothing! Nothing at all!
It’s all chocolate! Every drop of that river is melted chocolate of the finest quality. The
very finest quality. Isn’t it terrific? And just look at my pipes! They suck up the
chocolate and carry it away to all the other rooms in the factory where it is needed!
Thousands of gallons an hour, my dear children! Thousands and thousands of gallons!

WW- - Nonsense! Of course they are real people! They are some of my workers!
Mike - That’s impossible! There are no people in the world as small as that!
WW- - No people in the world are as small as that? Then let me tell you
something.There are more than 3000 of them in my factory! They are Oompa - Loompas

Charlie - Oompa Loompas! What do you mean?

WW- Imported direct from Loompa Land. And oh! What a terrible country it is!
Nothing but thick jungles infested by the most dangerous beasts in the world-
hornswoggles and snozzwangers and those terrible whangdoodles.A whangdoodle would
eat 10 Oompa loompas for breakfast and come galloping back for a second helping.
When I went out there, I found poor Oompa loompas living in tress houses. When i
found them they were practically staving to death. They use to eat green caterpillars, red
beetles, eucalyptus leaves and the bark of the bong bong tree. They loved cacao beans
too, but only found about one or two a year. They used to dream about cacao beans all
night and talk about them all day. It just so happen that cocoa bean is the thing from
which all chocolate is made. So I spoke to the leader of the tribe in Oompa Loompish
and told him that his people can have all the cocoa beans they wanted if they would just
come and work in my factory
(Action between WILLA WONKA and OL)
So here they are! They’re wonderful workers. They all speak English now. They love
dancing and music. They are always making up songs. I expect you’ll see them groove
today.

VS- Mummy! Daddy! I want an Oompa Loompa. I want you to get me an Oompa
Loompa! I want an Oompa Loompa right away. I want to take it home with me! Go on

Please be patient. I’ll see that you have one before the day is out.
(Augustus Gloop leans over river)
Mrs Gloop - Augustus! Augustus, sweetheart! I don’t think you should do that.
WW- Oh, no! Please, Augustus, P_L_E_A_S_E! I beg of you not to do that. My
chocolate must be untouched by human hands!
Mrs Gloop - Augustus! Didn’t you hear what the man said? Come away from that river
at once!
AG (leaning over further)- This stuff is teee-raaaa-ffiiicc! Oh boy, need a bucket to drink
it properly!
WW- Augustus …you must come away! You are dirtying my chocolate!
Mrs Gloop - Augustus! You’ll be giving that nasty cold of yours to about a million
people all over the country! Be careful Augustus! You’re leaning too far

WW- Keep calm. He’ll come out of it just fine, you wait and see.
Mrs Gloop - But he’ll be turned into marshmallows!
WW- Impossible
Mrs Gloop - And why not , May i ask?
WW- Because that pipe doesn’t go anywhere near the Marshmallow Room. It leads to

purse]You monster! You think it’s a joke?
WW- - He’ll be perfectly safe
Mrs. Gloop - He’ll be chocolate fudge!
WW- Never! I wouldn’t allow it!
WW- And why not?
WW- Because the taste would be terrible! Just imagine it! Augustus - flavored chocolate-
coated Gloop! No one would buy it.
Mrs Gloop - I don’t want to think about it!
WW- Nor do I, and I do promise you Madam, that your darling boy is perfectly safe!
Mrs Gloop - Where is he? Please take me to him.
WW- Go Over to one of the Oompa Loompa and ask him to show you to the fudge
Room. When you get there, take a long stick and start poking around inside the big
chocolate mixing barrel. He should be there. Don’t leave him in there too long though.
My fudge would become quite uneatable!
Mrs Gloop - What…what…what did you say?
WW- I’m joking - forgive me. Goodbye Mrs Gloop … See you later!

inventions are cooking and simmering here! Old fickle burger would give his front tooth

Everlasting Gobstoppers! They’re completely new! You can put everlasting gobstoppers
in your mouth and you can suck it and suck it and suck it and suck it. And it will never

VB- It’s like gum!
WW -It is not like gum! Gum is for chewing, and if you tried
chewing one of these Gobstoppers here, you’d break your teeth off.
But they taste terrific! And they change colour once a week!

VB - Gum!!! Gum!!!! It’s a stick of chewing gum!
WW -(Slapping Violet hard on the back) it’s a stick of the most amazing and sensational
gum in the world! This gum is a fantastic gum - in that it’s a chewing gum meal! It’s a
whole three-course dinner all by itself! When i start selling this gum in the shops, it will
change everything. It will be end of cooking. This piece of gum I’ve just made happens
to be tomato soup, roast beef and blueberry pie!
VB- What do you mean by that?
WW- If you were to start chewing it, you would actually taste all of those things. And it
fills you up! It satisfies you! It’s terrific!
VS - It’s utterly impossible!
VB- Let me try! (She takes her own piece of gum out of her mouth and sticks it behind

WW - These squirrels are specially trained for getting nuts of walnuts
MT - Why use squirrels? Why not use Oompa loompas?
WW - Nobody can get walnuts out of walnut shells in one piece except squirrels. I insist
on using only whole walnuts in my factory - so i use squirrels to do the job. And see how
they first tap each walnut with their knuckles- to be sure it’s not a bad one! If it’s bad, it

Scene 6 - TV Room

WW - Here we go! This is the Testing Room for my very latest and greatest invention-
Television Chocolate!
MT - But What is Television Chocolate!
WW - It works by television. I don’t like television myself. I suppose it’s all right in
small doses, but children never seem to be able to take it in small doses. They want to sit
there all day long …staring and staring at the screen
MT - That’s me!
WW - Thank you. Now then! The very first time I saw ordinary television working, I
was struck by a tremendous idea. If a Photograph could br broken up into millions of
pieces, and the pieces sent whizzing through the air until they hit an antenna, and then
put together on a screen - why couldn’t i send a real bar of chocolate whizzing through
the air in tiny pieces and then put the pieces together at the other end, all ready to be
eaten?
MT - Impossible!
WW- Think so? Watch me send a bar of chocolate from one end of this room to the other
- by television.Bring me that chocolate bar, please

It has to be big, because whenever you send something by television, it always comes out
much smaller. Here we go then! Get ready!

WW- Good heavens, child. I really don’t know …i suppose it could …yes I’m pretty
sure it could …of course it could. I wouldn’t like to risk it though - It might have some
nasty results

(He jumps in the screen)

Mrs Teavee - (running towards the screen) - He’s gone!!!
WW (placing his hand on Mrs Teavee’s shoulder)- We shall have to hope for the best
.We must pray that your little boy will come out unharmed at the other end. We must
watch the television screen. He may come through at any moment
(Everyone stares at the screen)
Mrs Teavee - Why is he taking so much time?
WW- Hold on! Watch the screen! Something’s happening!
Mrs Teavee - Here he comes! Yes, that’s him (pause) but he’s a midget! Isn’t he going to
get any bigger?
WW - Grab him! Quick!
(Mrs Teavee acts as if she grabs something) He’s completely okay!
Mrs Teavee - (acting as if there is something in her hand) you call this okay? He’s
shrunk!!!
WW– Of course he’s shrunk. What did you expect?
Mrs Teavee - This is terrible! Can’t send him back to school like this! He’ll be squashed.
He won’t be able to do anything. (She acts as if she’s listening to Mike in her hand)
What did you say Mike! (Pause)
Never! No, You will not be allowed to watch television! I’m throwing the television set
right out of the window the moment we get home. I’ve had enough of television!
What Mike (Pause)
I don’t care what you want …or how much you jump and scream!
(She put’s him in her purse)
Charlie - How Will Mike ever grow again?
WW- Well. …Small boys are extremely springy and elastic, so maybe he’ll stretch if we
put him on a special machine i have for testing the tough stretchiness of chewing gum!
Mrs Teavee - How far do you think he’ll stretch?
WW - Maybe miles! Anyway he’ll be awfully thin! But we’ll fatten him up with all my
super vitamin candy.
