    The story

    The story tells the life of a young girl, Matilda. The musical begins with her birth and moves on to describe her unhappy upbringing as she lives with her TV-addicted family and bears their constant abuse. She is an intelligent child who loves reading even though her family believes that it is a complete waste of one’s time. Due to the abuse she faces Matilda often plays pranks on people aided by her telekinetic powers. Matilda even plays pranks on her school’s headmistress, Mrs Trunchbull whom she believes to be a bully. Soon, she develops a strong friendship with her teacher Miss Honey, who admires Matilda’s intellect and almost magical abilities. The story progresses to explore the relationship between Matilda and Miss Honey, and Matilda’s desire for freedom. To watch it all unfold, book Matilda The Musical tickets now.

    The ticketing was easy. The actors were very good, and the show entertaining. The only issue was the seating, which was partly obscured however, even though I picked seats that showed they were not partly obscured. Little kids had problems seeing the show, so they stood up a lot, and some got bored and chatted.

    Great location, super stage design, wonderful staging ideas. The actors were really good. One small drawback - the sound mixing could have been better - sometimes the music or vocals were too loud or too quiet. But I would go again and recommend it to others.

    The musical was excellent. The actors 5 stars. The theatre is not well distributed. Had to fight all the time to try to see between two heads that kept on moving and that made the experience less pleasant
