Matilda The Musical is the multi-award winning musical from the Royal Shakespeare Company, inspired by the beloved book by Roald Dahl.
With book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin, Matilda The Musical is the story of an extraordinary little girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny.
Winner of over 100 international awards, including 24 for Best Musical, Matilda has been delighting audiences in London’s West End for over 13 years.
We went to see Matilda the Musical in London last night with our two young daughters, and it was an incredible experience. Our girls absolutely loved it, and honestly, we may have loved it even more! The set design was stunning, and the performances were phenomenal. The show is truly led by the talented young cast, who carried it beautifully alongside some standout adult leads. Their energy, confidence, and talent were remarkable to watch. It was an outstanding performance from start to finish. If we lived in the UK, I’d definitely go again. A fantastic show for families visiting London!
The performers were amazing, especially the actor who played Matilda
