The first production was “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and was a massive success, with both performances sold out. The confident cast of Olly Cavner as Willy Wonka and Alex Norris as Charlie was bound to be a sure success from the start. The younger members of the group played the colourful Oompa Lumpas superbly with a huge amount of energy and animation.

Here is a copy of the credited cast list. You can find pictures of most of them in the profiles section.
