Matilda, Cambridge Theatre - ★★★ - Until December 20, 2020


The UK loves Roald Dahl and this brings one of his classics to the stage with some sharp lyrics by Tim Minchin. The staging is clever and the cast energetic. There is entertainment here for both the children and the adults in the audience. This multi-award winning musical is from the Royal Shakespeare Company, a hallmark of quality and the production is first rate. It’s always fun to see how the latest actor will take on the role of Miss Trunchbull and let loose his inner headmistress.
