Something magical is about to
happen this holiday season at the
Erie Playhouse! An international
sensation, “Matilda” is the story
of an extraordinary little girl with
extraordinary powers. The daughter
of neglectful parents, she finds refuge
in library books. Things are no better
at school, where Matilda also must
face a cruel headmistress. She finds
companionship in her teacher, Miss
Honey, who, though well-intentioned,
is shy and fragile. Brave little Matilda
knows she has to stand up against the
adults in her world and, in so doing,
discovers her own remarkable powers.
