Matilda the Musical is bringing MUSKET back to its big-Broadway, musical comedy roots!

This charming story, based on the popular movie and book, is about a girl who is not only incredibly intelligent, but has unwavering courage! Born into a family where she is unwanted and mocked for her favorite hobby (reading), Matilda dreams about the day she will finally get to attend school. Unfortunately, this only presents additional challenges as it is run by a hilariously evil principal, Miss Trunchbull, who punishes kids in terrifying ways. Matilda, with the help of her kind teacher, Miss Honey, her classmates, and of course, her telekinetic powers, rises up. In true Roald Dahl fashion, this dark comedy is able to strike a perfect balance between humor and fear within its energetic hip hop dance numbers and an unforgettable score you are sure to leave humming!
