Matilda, The Musical
Matilda is one of our favourite musicals and one of the longest running musicals in London!
Award-winning musical with excellent reviews, inspired by the children’s book by Roald Dahl.
The book was published over 30 years ago and has been adapted for radio, stage and film (Danny DeVito, remember?!).
Matilda is a witty musical that tells the story of an imaginative girl who decides to create her own destiny.
Who is the musical for?
Great for children that understand good level of English as well as adults.
Suitable for ages 6+, it’s basically a children’s story, but we were two adults and really enjoyed it!
It is necessary to know some basic English, but it is easy to understand what is happening on stage.
Watching the film before the musical may help understanding.
