Follow up to this post.
Mr. Paul Connell, spoke to The Independent about how this chocolate river was a shitshow from the beginning.
- He was hired and even the script was AI generated gibberish of wild monologues.
- They even misspelled contract in his contract ('Coontract' [sic]? oh mygod).
- One line was ‘There is a man we don’t know his name. We know him as the Unknown. This Unknown is an evil chocolate maker who lives in the walls.’. So I guess that guy wasn't a death eater but The Unknown Wall Chocolate Man.
- The finale involved him sucking up this man with a vaccuum cleaner. He asked if they had it and they said "yeah we haven't really got the vaccuum yet just improvise"
- He showed up for dress rehearsal and saw the underwhelming warehouse vibesz and thought "Well surely, the people who gave me a coontract are just getting set up, and it won't look like this tomorrow for the real show." (Surprise! It did)
- The kids got one jellybean and a quarter cup of lemonade. 🍫 Yes, they were missing chocolate.
- He played Wonka for 3 hours straight without a break, It got quite riotous, children were crying. The organizers told him "He was spending too much time with the children trying to entertain them."
- Eventually, he conferred with the two other Wonkas and 'the nearest Oompa Loompa' (Was is this one?) and left.
- They haven't been paid either, but the parents did seem to have sympathy for the actors doing their best.
I'm sorry they weren't paid (I hope they get that soon) and that children were disappointed but I'm sorry this is so funny.
