BETWEEN THE LINES: WILLY WONKA JR.
Good Family Theater: Always Edgy The original publisher of Roald Dahl’s book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (fromwhich today’s mus ical was adapted) said of the text “this book (is ) in bad tas te(because) books should not be aimed at both children and adults .” I could notdisagree more s trongly. The bes t children's s tories appeal equally well to both adultsand kids and any s tory that bores an adult will likely bore a child. As any teacher willtell you, children are the mos t demanding audience, so s tories targeted to them mus tbe well crafted, exciting and, in some way, dangerous . Talk with the kids and adults who accompanied you to the theater today about someof the great s tories that you enjoyed as a child (and likely s till enjoy today). Was thereany danger in these tales? I suspect that in these s tories the children are always atrisk and the protective figure of the parent was marginaliz ed or absent. The childrenfaced an uncertain future, and were forced to rely on their own wits . Maybe theydiscover abilities and s trength that they did not know that they possessed. In Willy Wonka JR. , we are introduced to the biz arre chocolate maker of the title and toa group of poorly behaved children who run afoul of the whimsical but dangerousmachines in his factory. It is this element of danger that both frightens and intrigues uswhether we are 8 or 88. Enjoy talking with your fellow theater goers about the parts ofthe s tory that delight and scare you. Theater is at its bes t when it lets us share ourwonderment and our fears . Enjoy, Mark Abram-CopenhaverArtistic DirectorSouth Bend Civic Theatre
