| Palmdale Playhouse Announces Auditions for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory |
PALMDALE, CA – The Palmdale Playhouse is thrilled to bring the whimsical world of Willy Wonka to life with open auditions for the beloved production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! This timeless tale promises to enchant audiences of all ages, and we are excited to welcome both seasoned adult performers and young stars ages 10-17 to audition to be part of this extraordinary journey.
“This production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a wonderful opportunity for our youth to explore their creativity and for the community to come together in support of the arts,” said Palmdale Mayor Austin Bishop. “We can’t wait to see our talented residents shine on stage and bring this classic story to life!”
The world-famous Willy Wonka is opening the gates to his mysterious factory — but only to a lucky few. Young Charlie Bucket and four other golden ticket winners will embark on a life-changing journey through Wonka’s world of pure imagination, featuring chocolate waterfalls, nutty squirrels and the great glass elevator, all revealed by Wonka’s curious Oompa-Loompas. We’re seeking young actors eager to step into the iconic roles of Charlie Bucket, Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde and Mike Teevee, as well as adult actors for other parts, including Willy Wonka himself. This is an incredible opportunity for young performers to shine and be part of a magical community production that audiences of all ages will adore.
