‘Matilda’ play dates, times and casts
Play: Matilda the Musical
Book: Dennis Kelly adapted from the 1988 Children’s Novel by Roald Dahl
Music & Lyrics: Tim Minchin
Genre: musical
Synopsis: The daughter of abusive parents, Matilda finds refuge in library books and in creating stories of her own. Things are no better at school, where Matilda also must face a tyrannical and cruel headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, who believes in Crunchem Hall’s motto: “Bambinatum est Magitum,” or “Children are Maggots.” She finds companionship in her teacher, Miss Honey who, though well-intentioned, is shy and fragile. Brave little Matilda knows she has to stand up against the adults in her world, and in doing so, discovers her own remarkable powers. Matilda’s bravery teaches Miss Honey and her classmates an important lesson — that even though life can be hard, “nobody but me is gonna change my story” so “sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty.”
