Where did you order Grease Jr. from? I don't see it in the catalog of Broadway Jr. shows. Thanks!

It's not really "Grease Jr" (an MTI classification), but rather "Grease: School Version" from Samuel French.  http://www.samuelfrench.com/store/product_info.php/products_id/6459
 
Some of the languge is toned down, but still might be pretty rough to some.  I think you loose some of the songs as well.
 
What would be nice is a blending of "Grease" and "Grease: School Version" to get all the action and songs, but toning down some of the language.

ClapHi Wonka-ers! 
 
  We are in the middle of our production of WW, Jr.  It's going really well.  Most of my pics feature costumes, but you are welcome to take a look!

Hi all,
 
for anyone interested or going to be producing Willy Wonka Jr or (tya) we just finished our very successful run about 2 weeks ago.  We kept the entire set and costumes for rental purposes.  So if you are producing this show and need a set and oompa loompa costumes..and are in the Midwest around or near Wisconsin...our set is available for $1,000 per entire run.
 
I have pictures available upon request, also a video of our production I can send out as well.
 
We have the bucket shack "flyable" background, bucket shack bed, candy cart that lights up,  pink candy boat that is painted in all flourescent paint, so it glows under black light, Agustus Gloop table of food, fizzy lifting room that lights up and blows out bubbles out the top, nut room that has red and green working lights for "good nut/bad nut", inventing room that lights up and has clear tubes that the "gobstopper" travels down in..needs to be mounted to your scaffolding.  chocolate smelting pot and spigot.  We have light up "hoop" columns that can be hung and top lit for the factory as well.  plus numerous candy "cutouts".  Also the choco vision room camera and tv.
 
We used video projections on our cyc as well, and that dvd is available from us to use as well if you are at all interested in projecting, moving backgrounds..which work well for this show.
 
We also have oompa loompa costumes that come with purple goggles,  polka dot jackets, white knickers, and matching spats and lime green wigs..enough for 18 people
 
Again, we'd like $1,000 per rental for this set.  It's really nice and we hope someone else can get some use out of it.
 
Thanks

I did Willy Wonka jr last spring
 
We used a Halloween costume called the Wacky Tourist.  It is an inflatable costume of an oversized man.  We then had violet wear a purple "tucked" dess that when the fan blows the costume will go with it. (battery run fan comes with costume)  We also used loose blue face make-up that when she turned around two oompas patted it on her face quickly and she appeared blue from the audience.
 
For the nut chute, we had an elevated platform with a ramp.  We then set up a curtain attached to a hinged plywood to open large enough to fit the squirels and their handlers in.  Veruca sang her song sn plunged down the ramp (unseen, because it was covered with black fabric from the audience's point of view) and simply waited to leave until after Mr Salt dove in after her.  They both then exited under the ramp and out behind the platform.
 
For the Chocolate river, we had oompas holing on to the river and waving it in three sections deep.  Under the "river" we had a mattress.  On tha same platform mentioned above Augustus leaned over the side and "drank" from the fountain with the help pf Nutella he has holding in his hand and gave the appearance of chocolate all over his hands and face.  When the time came, he simply fell off the platform onto the mattres and "into" the river.  He also left under the platform.
 
For the Candy boat we had a simple pink faced viking ship looking cut out being carried by oompas.  It moved slowly until it reached center stage.  Everyone got in and then during the song it was nothing but blacklights.  So th spider and dancers all moved around the boat as it stayed put giving the illusion that it was moving.  Then lights come up and they exit the boat and are in a different room.
 
As for mike, we had one very large box and one small box made to look like TVS.  The large one was covered in a fabric across the screen and he ran through the tv to off stage while immediately an OOmpa "finds" Mike in the small TV and Wonka simply picks up a doll dressed like Mike and Mike speaks from off stage.
 
I hope this helps spark some ideas for you.
