Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit,
intelligence and psychokinetic powers.
She's unloved by her cruel parents but
impresses her schoolteacher, the highly
lovable Miss Honey. Over the course of
her first term at school, Matilda and Miss
Honey have a profound effect on each
other's lives, as Miss Honey begins not
only to recognize but also appreciate
Matilda's extraordinary personality.
Matilda's school life isn't co
mpletely smooth sailing, however –
the school's mean headmistress, Miss
Trunchbull, hates children and just loves
thinking up new punishments for those
who don't abide by her rules. But Matilda
has courage and cleverness in equal
amounts, and could be the school pupils'
saving grace!
Packed with high-energy dance numbers,
catchy songs and an unforgettable star
turn for a young actress, Matilda is a
joyous girl power romp. Children and
adults alike will be thrilled and delighted
by the story of the special little girl with
an extraordinary imagination.
