À propos Matilda La Comédie Musicale
Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical is the RSC's multi-award-winning adaptation of one of the most cherished children's stories ever written, and it has firmly established itself as one of the jewels of London's West End. Playing at the Cambridge Theatre in Covent Garden, this brilliantly witty and surprisingly subversive show tells the story of an extraordinary girl with a passionate love of books and a very special gift — and her battle against the tyrannical Miss Trunchbull. Tim Minchin's extraordinary score, packed with clever wordplay and soaring melodies, has produced some of the most celebrated songs in contemporary musical theatre, including the magnificent 'Naughty' and 'When I Grow Up'.
The Cambridge Theatre is ideally situated in the heart of Covent Garden, one of London's most vibrant and visitor-friendly areas, within easy walking distance of Seven Dials, the Royal Opera House, and a huge range of restaurants, cafés, and bars. It is easily reached via Covent Garden or Leicester Square underground stations, making it one of the most conveniently located theatres for visitors to London. The production's design is as inventive and playful as the story itself, with a set that feels like it has been conjured directly from the pages of Dahl's book. Performances are consistently outstanding, with child performers who match and often surpass the extraordinary standard set by the show's original cast.
Matilda the Musical is the perfect show for families visiting London, and is suitable for children aged 6 and above. It is, however, every bit as enjoyable for adults — the show's wit, its clever theatrical games, and the emotional depth of its storytelling make it a genuinely rewarding experience for theatregoers of all ages. Families planning a West End theatre trip may also want to book The Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre for another unmissable family musical experience, or consider the delightful Paddington the Musical and the classic Oliver! for a complete London family theatre itinerary.
Book your Matilda the Musical West End tickets well in advance — this is one of London's most popular shows, and family-friendly performances in particular sell out very quickly. Whether you're introducing children to the magic of live theatre for the first time or returning to a show you already love, Matilda the Musical delivers an evening of pure theatrical delight that will stay with you long after the curtain falls.
