THE MAJESTIC ACADEMY OF DRAMATIC ARTS WILL PRESENT ROALD DAHL’S MATILDA JR ON MARCH 28 – 30, 2025!

About the show:

Book by Dennis Kelly, Music & Lyrics by Tim Michin / Rebellion is nigh in Matilda JR., a gleefully witty ode to the the anarchy of childhood and the power of imagination! This story of a girl who dreams of a better life and the children she inspires will have audiences rooting for the “revolting children” who are out to teach the grown-ups a lesson. Matilda has astonishing wit, intelligence… and special powers! She’s unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. 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!

Majestic’s production stars children and teens of The Majestic Academy of Dramatic Arts under the Direction of Collette Foley.
