One of my favorite books and movie growing up was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The Johnny Depp version wasn't near as good, even though I like Johnny Depp and have his autograph on my office wall. When I heard the Valley Youth Theatre was putting on the show I bought front row tickets early, hoping it would be as good as the original book and movie. It was amazing! We laughed so hard and met the characters afterwards, all while enjoying Willy Wonka bars of our own. The highlight was just before intermission. Charlie found the golden ticket in his candy bar. As he did, Ethan yelled out, "He got the ticket!" Some of the audience members thought he was part of the show. To see Ethan get so excited (and not know the story) was so sweet.
