Nelson Musical Theatre is thrilled to present Matilda the Musical, the dazzling stage adaptation of Roald Dahl’s beloved tale, brought to life with electrifying music by Tim Minchin and a heartwarming script by Dennis Kelly.

This internationally acclaimed musical tells the story of Matilda Wormwood, a precocious young girl with a love of books, a razor-sharp mind, and a quiet resilience. Despite being misunderstood by her neglectful parents and terrorised by the formidable Miss Trunchbull, Matilda discovers her own extraordinary powers and dares to take a stand. With the help of her kind-hearted teacher Miss Honey and a group of spirited classmates, Matilda proves that even the smallest among us can change the world.

Featuring a vibrant cast of 36 talented children and adult performers, this production bursts with energy, humour, and emotion. Audiences will be swept away by unforgettable musical numbers like “Naughty”, “When I Grow Up”, and “Revolting Children”, each packed with clever lyrics and infectious melodies.

Expect stunning choreography, imaginative staging, and a story that celebrates the power of courage, kindness, and creativity. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of Roald Dahl or discovering Matilda for the first time, this show promises an unforgettable theatrical experience for all ages.
