Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Musical)

'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' is a musical based on the Roald Dahl 1964 book 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory', and has been performed since 2013. The musical is about a young poor boy Charlie Bucket and the resurface of famous chocolatier Willy Wonka, who's stashed five golden tickets in his chocolate Wonka bars throughout the world. The tickets' finders, including Charlie and four spoiled children, are allowed into his factory and given the chance to win a mysterious special prize. The original UK production performed in the West End from 2013 to 2017. An ongoing American production on Broadway opened in 2017, along with other international productions in Australia, Italy, Norway and Brazil.

One of the spoiled children, gum-chewing Violet Beauregarde, tries an experimental gum of Wonka's that inflates her body and turns her into an immobile human blueberry. For this, the Violet suit has a backpack hiding a mechanism that inflates the suit's arms, torso and legs, activated by the actress using a connected hand pump.

The Brazilian production uses both the actresses with inflatable gear in their suit and a double in an inflatable suit for a later point in the blueberry inflation.
