MTI Shows holds the rights to the stage musical version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Broadway version) and are offering the licence for performance by UK community theatre groups. Molly Limpet's is excited to be at the forefront of the launch of yet another exciting musical, and have confirmed bookings stretching into 2026.
We have TWO BRAND NEW full working wardrobes for this show: the one shown here is for adult companies, and the latest to be produced (January 2025) is for schools/juniors. Please state the age brackets of your company when you enquire.
Molly Limpet's acquired some of the original principal West End costumes from the professional staging of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, including Mrs TV, Verucca Salt, Mr Salt, Violet Beauregarde (including her 'trick' costumes), Mr Beauregarde, Charlie Bucket and Mrs Gloop. Our NEW full licence wardrobe incorporates some of these costumes, size-depending. All other design/realisation of costumes shown here remains the intellectual property of Molly Limpet's, as designed by Scott McKenzie, our in-house designer.
Our Oompa Loompas send this show straight into fantasyland. We conceived a way to make costumes much more accessible for your ensemble (which will also please your choreographers!) and are not simply repeating what has gone before. As always, Molly Limpet's in-house designer and talented Team have been hard at work researching the show, the history of the book, and the staging of such a technical show for community theatre, in order that you can trust you are in the safest of hands.
CONTACT US if you would like to enquire about theatrical costume hire for your forthcoming production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. You must include performance dates, full company name, and your contact number. Please state the age bracket of your company members when you enquire (our two new wardrobes cater to either adults or juniors).
