JStage’s fall 2026 youth musical is your golden ticket to an exciting world of pure imagination! Based on the hit 2013 West End musical (and the subsequent 2017 Broadway production) this reimagined version of Roald Dahl’s beloved story features an original score composed by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (HAIRSPRAY), as well as additional songs from the classic 1971 motion picture WILLY WONKA & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY. The junior version has been adapted specifically for young actors.
