Puffin Books 2005 Trade paperback Good A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. Viewers don’t want or need them to be altered.1 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory “ Dahl’s stories and characters were genius. The story is a classic and has nothing to do with gender, so it just seems like change for the sake of being woke. “ As if rewriting Dahl wasn’t bad enough, theatre producers now want to re-gender his characters,” a source told The Sun. Puffin UK subsequently announced that it would produce uncensored versions of his books following the outcry. References to weight, height, mental health, gender and colour have been removed from the stories, and new passages added by the publishers to mitigate offence. This follows a backlash earlier this year when The Telegraph revealed publisher Puffin UK had made hundreds of changes to the writer’s original books with the approval of the Roald Dahl Story Company. Why change something that was not broken?” One told The Sun: “I was stunned to see Charlie is now a girl. Young actresses Jessie Lou-Harvie and Amelia Minto will alternate with two male leads, Isaac Sugden and Noah Walton, in a new adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic, which is currently touring the UK.Īudiences have expressed their surprise at the switch and questioned whether it was necessary. Theatregoers have criticised a “woke” production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, after two girls were cast in the lead role.
