Matilda the Musical | Mountain View CPA
July 28, 2023 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm
The story of an extraordinary girl who dares to take a stand and change her own destiny, Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical is a captivating masterpiece that revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life.
Packed with high-energy dance numbers and catchy songs, Matilda is a joyous girl power romp. Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. She’s unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Over the course of her first term at school, Matilda and Miss Honey have a profound effect on each other’s lives, as Miss Honey begins not only to recognize but also appreciate Matilda’s extraordinary personality. Matilda’s school life isn’t completely smooth sailing, however – the school’s mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don’t abide by her rules.
But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils’ saving grace! Book by Dennis Kelly. Music and Lyrics by Tim Minchin. Based on the book, Matilda by Roald Dahl.
