*Synopsis | Wonky Wonka (2024)*
It seemed like a good idea at the time. Scottish entrepreneur Billy Coull thought he’d make money, and just as importantly make a whole lot of children happy, by staging a Willy Wonka spectacular in Glasgow. His idea was to take an empty warehouse and fill it with the wonder of Roald Dahl’s imagination. Coull promised it’d be like nothing the kids had ever seen before. And he was right. But for all the wrong reasons. The show was a disaster of monumental proportions. Turns out, among Coull’s many failings, his greatest was to rely on artificial intelligence to plan and then sell the extravaganza. As Adam Hegarty discovered though, AI simply wasn’t smart enough to understand the magic of Willy Wonka. This attempt at fun not only turned to farce, it also became the subject of worldwide ridicule.
