Booking now: Charity VIP West End theatre tour and show

The Thai Children's Trust is offering supporters a chance to experience an exclusive West End theatre tour and show this autumn. After a private backstage tour of one of London's oldest theatres, on Tuesday, 6th October, the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, there will be a private drinks reception with canapés in the Grand Saloon bar before taking your seats for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at 7.30pm.

Producer, Caro Newling, has kindly offered 50 top-seat tickets to the Trust in order to raise funds for the most disadvantaged children living in Thailand. When you buy your ticket for this exclusive package, you will be directly helping to support projects which reach more than 5,000 children in Thailand.

Roald Dahl's deliciously dark tale of young Charlie Bucket and the mysterious confectioner Willy Wonka comes to life in this brand new West End musical directed by Sam Mendes.

When Charlie wins a golden ticket to the weird and wonderful Wonka Chocolate Factory, it's the chance of a lifetime to feast on the sweets he's always dreamed of. But beyond the gates astonishment awaits, as down the sugary corridors and amongst the incredible edible delights, the five lucky winners discover not everything is as sweet as it seems.

Featuring ingenious stagecraft, the wonder of the original story that has captivated the world for almost 50 years is brought to life with music by Marc Shaiman, and lyrics by Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman, a book by award-winning playwright and adaptor David Greig, set and costume designs by Mark Thompson (Mamma Mia!; One Man, Two Guvnors) and choreography by Peter Darling (Billy Elliot The Musical; Matilda The Musical).

A chocolate garden, an army of squirrels and the curiously peculiar Oompa-Loompas must be believed to be seen in this gigantic new musical that is choc-full of fantastical treats to dazzle your senses.

Tickets cost £90 (inc VAT). To avoid disappointment, please reserve your place before 31 August 2015.
