We entered a world of ‘Pure Imagination’ this season!

For more than 50 years Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has captured imaginations around the world, and now our ALT audiences were invited to experience Willy Wonka’s delightful and semi-dark chocolate world first-hand. We satisfied many a sweet-tooth with this modern musical remake of the classic children’s novel for the first Mainstage production of the of the 2023-24 season.

 ALT assembled a brilliant and fun cast for this production. In collaboration with our ALT Academy, 38 Academy students and 20 adults took the stage to bring this musical to life. Principal roles included Academy student Graham Moore as Charlie Bucket, Dennis Humphrey as Willy Wonka, Michael Jones as Grandpa Joe and Megan Gore as Mrs. Bucket. The Golden Ticket winners and their parents included Lane Donathan as Augustus Gloop, Shannon Mashburn as Mrs. Gloop, Hannah Moore as Veruca Salt, Nels Bjork as Mr. Salt, Sabrina Ali as Violet Beauregarde, Kyle Gipson as Mr. Beauregarde, Wyatt Hall as Mike Teavee and Sara Pennington-Booher as Mrs. Teavee.
