The Atlanta Opera Gets Scrumdiddlyumptious

Roald Dahl’s 1964 book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has been adapted numerous times—perhaps most memorably in the 1971 film starring Gene Wilder as the gleefully enigmatic chocolatier Willy Wonka.  That story of one fateful trip to a candy factory is now coming to the opera stage—the Atlanta Opera has mounted a production of The Golden Ticket, and WABE’s John Lemley spoke with their cast and crew about the show.

The Golden Ticket opens at the Cobb Energy Center on March 3^rd and runs to March 11^th.  For more information, click here.
