Yeah; my son played Willie Wonka and Charlie was a girl…he always gets parts because he’s a boy. But that’s nothing like dance recitals; there’s like 3 boys and a hundred girls.
Willie Wonka was played by a girl in this. Fooled me.
I felt sorry for the girl who played Verruca Salt. Some balloons were supposed to inflate to make her into a blueberry. Something malfunctioned and she almost broke down but the kids soldiered on and averted disaster.
