Matilda The Musical is the multi-award winning musical from the Royal Shakespeare Company, inspired by the beloved book by the incomparable Roald Dahl.

With book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin, Matilda The Musical is the story of an extraordinary little girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny.

Winner of 99 international awards, including 24 for Best Musical, Matilda continues to delight audiences in London.

'AN EVENING OF UNADULTERATED BLISS.
Writer Dennis Kelly and composer and lyricist Tim Minchin go to the top of the class with this anarchically joyous, gleefully nasty and ingenious musical adaptation of Roald Dahl’s story.'

The Guardian

'EASILY THE STANDOUT MUSICAL OF THE DECADE.
Heart-tugging and inexpressibly moving. The audience are sent out of the theatre glowing with emotion.’

The Sunday Times

'SMART, QUIRKY AND SUBLIMELY GOOD FUN.
A moving and subtle spectacle which will have kids in stitches and adults in tears. It is guaranteed to delight anyone who’s ever been a child. I can’t wait to see it again.’

Time Out

'UTTERLY EXHILARATING.
Matthew Warchus’s colourful riot of a production achieves an even dizzier balance between gleeful, grotesque, fun and heart-tugging poignancy, brilliantly drilled dynamism and warm, unforced charm.’
