Matilda Wormwood is a little girl with big curiosity, a sharp mind, and a vivid imagination - and the worst parents in the world. While they're loud, selfish, and unkind, and content themselves with trashy TV and dodgy money-making schemes, Matilda's a quiet observer who loves to lose herself in the pages of her beloved books, thinking up cheeky and small acts of rebellion.
On meeting her inspirational teacher Miss Honey, Matilda is encouraged and begins conjuring her own fantastical tales, but is surprised to find her school is an ominous and oppressive place led by the villainous Miss Trunchbull.
Aided by the bright lights among the meanness and filled with an overwhelming sense of justice, Matilda dares to take a stand for what's right and teach Trunchbull a lesson she won't forget in a brand-new take on the Tony and Olivier award-winning musical based on Roald Dahl's beloved story about an extraordinary young girl with an incredible gift.
