19 roles
Gum chewer extraordinaire, Violet hails from Snellville, Georgia .Violet is a blue collar, middle class brat (unlike Veruca - who is very wealthy).
A wealthy, class-conscious and completely spoiled! Must be a performer that is bold and comes across very privileged.
Augustus’s mother who has overindulged her son with food. Her role requires an actress who isn't afraid to take risks both acting and singing.
A teacher of geography and has invested a great deal of hard-earned money on her gum-chewing daughter.
A take on all television moms of the distant past. Think Carol Brady (The Brady Bunch). She's perfectly put together and a bit ‘spacey’.
The emotional heart and soul of the musical. The actor performing Charlie should have lots of enthusiasm. Charlie needs to read as younger onstage.
The grandfather we all wish we had when we were Charlie's age. He is caring, patient, sweet, and always reminds Charlie to look on the bright side.
Reporter who announces the winners of the Golden Ticket contest through the show. Must have good stage presence.
Mike is a TV, video game and any technological device junky. He is bratty, loud and obnoxious. He does not understand the word no.
Augustus is an overachieving eater. But he is very sensitive. He needs a lot of character - should be somewhat over the top.
Mr. Salt's solution to most problems is to buy his way out. He is upper class and very indulgent of his daughter Veruca.
An mysterious character; at once odd and mischievous but also charismatic. The actor should be able to be funny and serious and change between the two on a dime. Need a lot of energy to play this role.
Charlie’s parents. Both should be nurturing and caring.
Charlie’s parents. Both should be nurturing and caring.
Charlie’s other three Grandparents (George, Gorgina, Josephina). These characters need to bring some interesting aspects to the character and have good comedic timing.
