Original London Cast of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
News of Veruca
(After viewing “The Bavarian Beefcake” and his family, Grandpa George points out that one ticket gone means one less chance, but Charlie remains optimistic. Then they learn that another ticket has been found. It seems a British billionaire’s baby ballerina
is the lucky one this time, and her name is Veruca Salt…)
[JERRY, spoken]
Breaking news.
A second Golden Ticket has been found.
And here to tell us all about it is our mistress of all matters Wonka, Cherry Sunday.
Cherry, where are you?
[CHERRY, spoken]
Jerry, I’m in England.
Our winner is twelve, she likes ballet, she’s the daughter of a
peanut billionaire and her name is Veruca Salt.
Mr. Salt, tell all!
[MR. SALT, spoken]
Well, as soon as Mr. Wonka made his announcement my Veruca expressed a very keen interest in the competition.
[VERUCA]
I want a ticket, NOW!
[MR. SALT]
How could I possibly refuse?
