MST Presents: Matilda

Book by Dennis Kelly, Music and Lyrics by Tim Minchin

Based on the Book, Matilda by Roald Dahl

Family Musical | Recommended for ages eight and up.

The story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny.

Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory comes another unlikely hero: Matilda Wormwood. Born to parents who prize their own ignorance and disdain books, learning, and any information they can’t get from television, Matilda somehow manages to emerge...a genius. Maybe even a magical one. However, she and the rest of the school are under the tyrannical rule of a deliciously devious villain, principal Agatha Trunchbull. The Tony Award-winning Roald Dahl's Matilda The Musical is the captivating masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare Company embracing the fearful and terrifying moments of childhood with humor, hard-earned optimism, and astoundingly witty musical numbers. Songs like “Miracle,” “Naughty,” and “Revolting Children” will ring true to adults and belong in the survival kit of any child making their way through pre-adolescence and beyond. 

“the most satisfying and subversive musical ever to come out of Britain.” - The New York Times

Roald Dahl's Matilda The Musical Is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
