Matilda set to create mayhem in latest show from Harlequins

Redditch Editorial 8th Nov, 2021   0

REDDITCH will be filled by the smell of rebellion when The Harlequins Theatre presents Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical JR.

Based on the beloved book ‘Matilda’ by Roald Dahl and adapted from the award-winning full-length musical, Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical, JR tells the story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to make a stand and change her own destiny.

“One of my favourite moments early on in the show is when Matilda sings, ‘Even if you are little you can do a lot’,” said director Jonathan Boxall-Southall.

“It’s such a powerful reminder for each of us, tall and small, to take ownership in how we can create our reality. Through the process of putting on this musical, our students are doing just that – they are joining together and working hard to create this extraordinary event for their community. We think they deserve a standing ovation for all their work.”




The Harlequins presents Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical JR. on Saturday and Sunday, December 11-12 at 2.30pm and 7.30pm at Woodrow Community Centre, Redditch.

Tickets are £10 available online www.ticketsource.co.uk/theharlequinsdramagroup or by calling 01527 877325.
