The Charlie and the Chocolate Factory musical is about to wind down operations in Sydney, before setting up production in Melbourne, then to Brisbane.

It will open at the Lyric Theatre at QPAC next March and while you won’t need a Golden Ticket, seats are expected to be devoured quickly.

The production will mark a return to Brisbane for Lucy Maunder who last graced the stage at QPAC in the production of Beautiful, the Carol King story.

She plays Mrs Bucket and joined Mark during intermission during the matinee performance in Sydney.
