Everyone deserves a sweet treat—and the chocolatey goodness of Willy Wonka hits just the right spot. Opening this Tuesday, the Center for Performing Arts hosts the new musical Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, a wacky journey of delights through Wonka’s illustrious factory. Performances will include hit Broadway songs from the original film (shout-out to Gene Wilder), including “Pure Imagination” and “I’ve Got a Golden Ticket,” as well as a new score from the songwriters behind Hairspray.
