This phenomenally successful show tells the story of a little girl armed with an amazing imagination and a love of books.
Photo: uk.matildathemusical.comMatilda's mum and dad think she's a nuisance and her monstrous headmistress spends all day stomping around the school scaring the pupils (and her fellow teachers!).
Photo: uk.matildathemusical.comOnly the kindly librarian recognises Matilda's talent, but when the tyrannical Miss Trunchbull tells her off one final time she decides she's finally had enough and unleashes her special powers.
Her classmates join the rebellion and everything quickly descends into anarchy. The children are revolting, and it's time to teach the grown-ups a lesson!
