Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. She’s unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, Miss Honey, who recognizes and appreciates Matilda’s extraordinary personality. However, school life isn’t completely smooth sailing for Matilda. The school’s mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and loves to punish those who don’t abide by her rules. But has she met her match in Matilda? (Approximate run time: 2.5 hrs.) Presented by The Alpha Players.

Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.
