MATILDA THE MUSICAL JR

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 – Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils' saving grace!

Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
