Overview

A London staging of the musical Matilda, with a script by Dennis Kelly and songs by Tim Minchin, drawn from Roald Dahl's story of a courageous girl with extraordinary powers.

Matilda The Musical brings Roald Dahl's story to the stage, following a young heroine whose extraordinary powers and determination drive the plot. The script is by Dennis Kelly, a writer nominated for a BAFTA, while the words, music and lyrics are by Tim Minchin, an Australian comedian. Minchin's songs are the production's main musical feature, and they are both comic and catchy.

The show is performed in English at the Cambridge Theatre, on Earlham Street in Covent Garden. Its humour sits alongside the heroine's courage, which stays at the centre of the story from start to finish. The production suits anyone who knows Dahl's book and wants to see its characters brought to life on stage, as well as theatregoers new to the story who enjoy a comic musical.
