Thank you to The Moms, Denise & Melissa for a wonderful evening of pure enjoyment!
When you think of the perfect day in NYC you think of seeing the sights taking in a show on Broadway. But what would make the day even better is having a few sweet treats at the largest candy store in NYC. Dylans Candy Bar is the place to get every delectable treat you can imagine from your favorite retro candies to ice cream sundaes. You can enjoy a sugar rush just by breathing in the air in the 3 level candy store of pure imagination.
My nieces and I were recently invited to attend a special event by The Moms at Dylan’s Candy Bar and then off to see Broadways’ latest hit Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. If you loved the original movie and even the remake you have to see this show. It is amazing to see the hopes and dreams of Charlie come to life. Of course, I was curious how they would work the Oompa Loompas into the production. All I can say is you have to see it to believe it.
Before you see the show head over to Dylans Candy Bar to have one of three special packages they are offering to tie in with the show!

Someone is excited to get their hands on all these treats. Of course all in moderation and when she’s not looking I will grab a piece or two. You can’t have one.
ROALD DAHL’s most treasured tale has arrived in the land where sweet dreams come true—Broadway—starring two-time Tony Award® winner CHRISTIAN BORLE (Something Rotten!, Peter and the Starcatcher) as the magical maestro Willy Wonka himself. And who better to conjure up this confectionary wonder than three-time Tony Award-winning director JACK O’BRIEN (Hairspray, The Front Page).
It’s the perfect recipe for a delectable treat: the beloved songs from the original film, including “Pure Imagination” and “The Candy Man,” alongside a brand new score from the Grammy® and Tony-winning songwriters of Hairspray, MARC SHAIMAN and SCOTT WITTMAN, a book from internationally acclaimed playwright DAVID GREIG and choreography from Emmy® Award winner JOSHUA BERGASSE. Audiences around the world have long adored the best-selling book and films, but none have experienced the magic of Wonka quite like this until now.
Now it’s off to see the show, with a quick subway ride over you, are certainly in for a treat to see Charlie and The Chocolate Factory
This show is perfect for all ages! These two give the musical 2 big thumbs up.
Intermission giggles and discussing how much they are enjoying the sweetest show on Broadway. They certainly had the golden ticket for the evening performance. I am so happy to be able to share these experiences with them. I mean really just look at these smiles.
Get your tickets now and enjoy pure imagination!
This would be amazing. Never having been to NYC I find the town fascinating. I mean I would be gawking at everything and you would know I was a tourist 🙂
This is the perfect combination for the best theater day ever!
I didn’t know they had made “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” into a musical! That sounds so fun on top of going to Dylan’s Candy Bar!
This was one of my favorite books and movies when I was a kid!
This looks like a lot of fun! We visited Dylan’s in Chicago, it’s a neat place.
Wow, this looks so amazing and my kids would enjoy it so much! #AG
I wish I had gone to Dylans when I’ve been to New York. Always on a business trip or doing other things. Next time I want to see a Broadway show and Dylans is a place I can’t wait to see. I can imagine it’s like the dreams you have when you could have unlimited candy of all sorts. I know they have stores in other places, but nothing like the New York store. Thank you so much for your review. I know it was a great experience.
