Magic happens on Orcas tonight — old-time Orcas magic with longtime talent nurturer Dider Gincg bringing out the best in the cast of “Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” from the youngest oompah-loompahs to the posse of grandparents that inhabit this modern-day fairy tale.
For most it’s their first time on stage, and one can only imagine that with the guidance of Orcas singers and dancers like Gordon Koenig and Tiffany Loney, and the encouragement of Gincig and star Christopher Evans, these kids will treasure this memory and come back to the stage again and again.
The show starts at 6:30 — tickets are selling fast! Get there early to get a good seat and be enveloped in charm and talent.
Thank you to everyone who came to the shows. The audience is such a vital part of what we are creating. Your laughter, delight, applause, and enthusiasm feed the performers.
Thank you to everyone who believed in this project and helped make it happen.
Thank you to everyone who stepped up to help.
Thank you to all of our performers. I admire your ability to memorize lines and to become the character.
So much love is in my heart. This is a dream come true supported by so many talented people!
