A brand-new take on the Tony and Olivier award-winning musical about an extraordinary girl with a vivid imagination.
Matilda Wormwood (Alisha Weir) is a little girl with big curiosity and a sharp mind—and the worst parents in the world. While her folks (Stephen Graham and Andrea Riseborough) content themselves with trash television and quick money-making schemes, she loves to lose herself in the pages of her beloved books. On meeting her inspirational teacher Miss Honey (Lashana Lynch), Matilda is encouraged to push her mental powers to their full potential—but she finds a powerful adversary in the tyrannical headteacher Miss Trunchbull (Emma Thompson). Standing up for what’s right, she is met with results that are nothing short of miraculous.
This extraordinary new adaptation of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s acclaimed production is directed by Tony Award-winner Matthew Warchus, with original music and lyrics by Tim Minchin.
