Wayne Township Community Theatre is offering an opportunity for students to grab their “Golden Ticket” and enroll in a Spring Break Theatre Camp that will present selections from Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka KIDS.

Open to students in second through eighth grade, camp will be held March 23-27 from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at Chapelwood Elementary. Camp enrollment is $125, and the week-long experience will culminate with a final performance of the show on the Ben Davis High School Theatre stage at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, March 27.

Willy Wonka KIDS follows enigmatic candy manufacturer Willy Wonka as he stages a contest by hiding five golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whoever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy.

Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats: 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.

Campers will learn about a variety of theatre topics including singing, dancing, acting, backstage work, costuming, improvisation and theatre games. Registration is open now and will continue through March 13, based on a first-registered, first-served basis.
