Warren Acting Company Blog

A note from Amanda Warren: We are well into rehearsals for “Willy Wonka Jr.” and it already looks as ifit is going to be a fantastic show. Costumes for this show are a little trickier — no more bight shirt black pants! — but still relatively simple, so I thought I would give some of you a jump start on getting your costumes together.

Below is the list of characters and what you will need to provide. If your character’s name is not on the list below, it’s because we haven’t decided what you will wear yet, so expect another letter home as soon as we know.
