Willy Wonka






*here, I knocked the saturation down and added a few elements, inspired by Cleveland's steelyards and warehouses. 










I've been in a world of Pure Imagination this past week developing these for Caryl Crane Youth Theatre's latest production, Willy Wonka. It's been a fun rediscovery of this classic story. ...and really, what's not to like?  Yummy, imaginative treats, catchy songs, and a poor kid, with heart, winning the day! I'm thrilled for the talented CCYT cast and crew and can't wait to see the show.


Pure Imagination
by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley

Come with me
and you'll be
in a world of
Pure Imagination
take a look
and you'll see
into your imagination

We'll begin
with a spin
traveling in
the world of my creation
what we'll see
will defy
explanation

If you want to view paradise
simply look around and view it
anything you want to, do it
wanta change the world?
there's nothing
to it

There is no
life I know
to compare with
Pure Imagination
living there
you'll be free
if you truly 
wish to be.
