FANTASTIC SHOW - STAR OF THE FUTURE

i was fortunate enough to attend the show on saturday 28th january, and i was impressed with everything about the show; the set was fantastic and very inventive as were the cast, and the young girl who played matilda will undoubtedly go on and become a huge star, she had such a charisma and stage presence. I wasn’t overly impressed with the theatre seating, we were sat in the upper circle and our seats moved if people sat forward on their seat, and I’m not too sure how fast an evacuation of the building could take place, in the event of an emergency. However I would recommend that if you are in London and want to watch a show that has a fantastic inventive set, humour, and a ‘10 out of 10 feel good factor bout it then this is the show for you

MATILDA THE MUSICAL

I went to watch Matilda the Musical a few weeks ago and I thought it was amazing. Lots of catchy music and the acting by Matilda was awesome. It was a really good expierience as I thought it was fun and worth watching

MAGICAL MATILDA!!

Beautiful, mesmerising and very creative. Absolutely loved it. The actress who plays Matilda when I saw the show (Hayley Canham) was superb-didn't deliver a line wrongly. All the cast were fantastic and I was engrossed in the story from the beginning. 10/10

MATILDA

Matilda came highly recommended by friends but the prospect of singing and dancing kids did fill me with slight fear. But what a show! It has converted this cynic. A truly fantastic evening.

FABULOUS!

My husband bought tickets to see 'Matilda' for my birthday and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. We wanted to see it because we both love Tim Minchen who wrote both the lyrics and music and I still thoroughly enjoy Roald Dahl books. The musical draws you into a magical world it is very engaging and full of delight and suprises. We all have a child in us but this clever musical appeals to all ages. It is definately the show of the moment. We ate at the nearby 'Ivy' restaurant but there are many lovely restaurants nearby all selling delicious food!

BRILLIANT SHOW

Saw this at the weekend and it was just brilliant. The children are amazing. Hayley Canham played matilda and she certainly stole the show, a very talented girl. Would highly recommend.

What we thought

colourful CLEVER Unmissable

Loud, colourful, and full of ridiculous expressions and playground jokes, from its set through to the dancing!

I'm afraid it's true, the kids are revolting - but don't be too alarmed, we mean 100% revolution and 0% revulsion. The school-aged portion of Matilda's cast are causing a revolution in musical theatre, singing and dancing their way to West End stardom...
