Community Players Theatre presents "Matilda the Musical", playing the weekends of July 15-17, 21-24, & 28-31. Based on the beloved children's book by Roald Dahl, this show is great for the whole family!
Matilda tells the story of a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence, and psychokinetic powers. She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable 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 completely 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!
Music & Lyrics by Tim Minchin - Book by Dennis Kelly - Based on the book Matilda by Roald Dahl
