Ben Goffe is one of the Oompa Loompas on Wonka: The Golden Ticket<\/a>, but he’s also got a very close family link to the original Willy Wonka<\/a> movie. Basically, his father was in the OG film, and now Ben has followed in his footsteps as an actor, dancer and musician.<\/p>\n

He calls himself an “occasional dwarf” and spends a lot of his working career in pantomimes. Ben starred in Sleeping Beauty with Jenny Ryan earlier this year, and was nominated as best comic in The Pantomime Awards 2025. He made his first debut in Snow White in 1999!<\/p>\n
