WIN CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY GOODIES TO CELEBRATE THE OPENING OF THE SPECTACULAR NEW MUSICAL!

I have very special memories of my Daddy reading me bed time stories when I was a child and the books that stick out in my memory are of course, as I am sure is the same with most children from my generation and beyond, by the author Roald Dahl!

My Father read me all of them I think and I have a memory for each one. ‘Fantastic Mr Fox‘ was the one we read snuggled up on my little green bed at his house, ‘The BFG‘ made us laugh and laugh as he did the most fabulous voices, ‘Danny the Champion of the World‘ was as my parents were separating and became a world I could disappear off into… ‘The Twits‘ was the one he started and I couldn’t put down once he’d finished for the night and would have to sneak the light on to have another read and ‘George’s Marvellous Medicine‘ I think is the first book I read from cover to cover on my own after my Father had read it to me because I loved it so much I needed to hear it again.

I probably have a story for every story really but there’s one that will always stick out… Charlie! For everyone has read Charlie haven’t they? Well for me ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory‘ was the first one my Daddy and I read and I remember just being amazed! AMAZED! And then after the book I remained a big fan of the story. I LOVED Veruca Salt; the way she said ‘I want a golden goose Daddy, I want a golden goose NOW!’

Well… Now ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ is currently in its preview period in London’s West End at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane and the 25th June will be its official opening night! Dahl’s arguably most famous characters, Charlie Bucket and the mysterious confectioner Willy Wonka will come to life on the stage directed by Academy Award® winner Sam Mendes.
