Event Description
Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the Tony Award-winning Roald Dahl's Matilda: The Musical revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life. Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her school teacher Miss Honey. During her first term at school, the two forge a bond as Miss Honey begins to recognize and appreciate Matilda's extraordinary personality. Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, however – the school's mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves to punish 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!
Booth Playhouse at Blumenthal Arts Center is located in Founders Hall and hosts a variety of dance, choral and other musical ensembles, as well as meetings, seminars and workshops.
