<div id="post-15201">
<div><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">LORAIN — Jacob Myers is the Willy Wonka you know and love — whether that’s Gene Wilder, Johnny Depp or Roald Dahl’s original.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">Myers, 18, is starring as the confectionary genius in “Willy Wonka
Junior,” a stage version of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” that
combines aspects of the book and both movies in a form short enough for
kids to appreciate. </span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;"></span></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">It is being put on by participants in the Palace Youth Theatre program, now in its 31st year. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">This year, 74 kids ages 8 to 18 are handling about 150 roles in the
play — most as kids in the candy store, Oompa Loompas and squirrels.</span></p><p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; "></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">The large number of parts allows actors who aren’t in leading roles to have two or more smaller roles throughout the play. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">“Just because they don’t have speaking roles doesn’t mean they
shouldn’t be on stage as much as possible,” said Jessica Smith, the
show’s producer.</span></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">The participants spend their weekdays 9:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. learning about all aspects of the theater. </span></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">In the morning, the kids break into smaller groups based on age to
work on acting, dancing, singing and costume and set design. During
the acting group time, the players get their scripts and work on
elaborate character sketches. </span></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">These sketches ask the actors to come up with a history for their
characters that might not show up in the play — their religion, what
motivates them, what secret they have that no one knows, and the like. They also write out their characters’ relation to every other character
in the play and decide for every entrance why their characters are
coming on stage.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">“It helps make your character the best character possible,” said
Emily Phillips, 12, who is perfecting Mrs. Gloop, the mother of the boy
who loves to eat too much.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">After lunch, they come together and work on group songs and dances. </span></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">The six-week youth program allows students to get involved in the
theater, but they’re not the only ones who enjoy their time at camp. The fee to sign up is $350.</span></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">“The parents love it just as much if not more than the kids,” Smith said.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">Palace Youth Theatre has brought to life many popular plays and
movies over the years, including “Aladdin Junior,” “Honk Junior,” and
last year’s “Seussical Junior.” </span></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">The staff tries to keep each year’s play a secret until after the program has started. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; ">“We don’t want kids to sign up for the show,” Smith said. “We want them to sign up for the experience.”</span></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">And they do.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">“I’m going to keep doing this until I can’t do this anymore,” Emily said.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">The actors will also be getting involved in community events — kids
from the show will be participating in the International Festival
parade on Sunday, throwing Wonka candy into the crowds.</span></font></p><p><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px;">Contact Alison Dietz at 329-7128 or <a href="mailto:metro@chroniclet.com">metro@chroniclet.com</a>.</span></font></p>
