Matilda, a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers, lives
with cruel parents who find her to be a nuisance, a lousy little worm, and a bore.
When Matilda enters her first term at school, she captures the attention of Miss Honey, a kind
teacher, and the two form a wonderful friendship. Unfortunately, the school is ruled by
a tempestuous and mean headmistress named Miss Trunchbull, who hates children and
delivers cruel and unjust punishments to all her charges.
Matilda is determined to change her story, but will her cleverness and courage be enough to withstand the reign of Miss Trunchbull?
Production with a cast of kids in grades 4 - 12!
