An entertaining + magical storyline

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Musical takes you on a whimsical journey featuring an eccentric inventor named Caractacus Potts who sets about restoring an old race car from a scrap heap with his children, Jeremy and Jemima. 

Little does the family expect to discover the car has magical properties like the ability to float and fly.

“So few people have seen this musical, and many of those who have name it in their top 10 favorites.

I think audiences of all ages will enjoy the humor and the spectacle and maybe even more so, the love that ties the Potts family together.”

Some of the most show-stopping numbers include songs like Toot Sweets and You Two.

According to Lacey Thomas who plays Jemima Potts, another song to listen out for is Truly Scrumptious.

A standout set

Something that truly stands out about the production is the set.

In fact, each cast member we talked to said the set—especially the flying car—is a big reason why audiences will love the show.

We spoke with Josh Little, production technician and technical assistant of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to find out what it takes to bring the set to life. 

“The show features a very complex and intricate set. From thousands of pieces of hand-painted candy to the flying car, the set has been a major undertaking.

There are lots of details to bring the show to life with things that light up, spin and move on their own to really help capture the magic of the show.”
