Matilda the Musical
Inspired by Roald Dahl’s twisted genius, the Tony Award-winning Matilda The Musical is a captivating masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare Company. It revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination, and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life. With a book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin, Matilda has won 47 international awards and continues to thrill sold-out audiences of all ages worldwide.
Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence, and psychokinetic powers. Her cruel parents unlove her but impress her schoolteacher, Miss Honey. During her first term at school, the two forge a bond as Miss Honey begins to recognize and appreciate Matilda’s extraordinary personality. Matilda’s school life isn’t completely smooth sailing, however – the school’s mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves to punish those who don’t abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts and could be the school pupils’ saving grace!
