“A poor little boy wins a ticket to visit the inside of a mysterious and magical chocolate factory in his town. When he experiences the wonders inside the factory, the boy discovers that the entire visit is a test of his character, with a marvelous reward if he passes muster,” a synopsis reads.
The cost is $5 for a family ticket (maximum of four persons per ticket). For more information, call the box office at 218-855-8199 or email clcperformingarts@clcmn.edu .
