Get your 'golden tickets' for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Carroll College Broulee

Students and teachers have been preparing the vibrant, fantastical production for six months, and are excited to invite audiences in to Willy Wonka's wondrous factory from June 27.

Teachers Teagan Lomax and Anna Smart are directing the musical, which is a modern adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic.

"We cast [the production] at the end of last year and started rehearsing in week one [this year]. It's been huge," said Ms Lomax.

She said the imaginative, mystical elements of the musical drew students to the production immediately.

"The songs are a bit more modern and there are the old throwback songs like 'Pure Imagination', but the songs that each of the golden ticket winners sings are modern and fun."

She said audiences can expect the same classic Wonka story with a few modern twists.

She said her favourite song is "I've Got a Golden Ticket".

"Capturing the joy and happiness of those characters has been awesome."
