This isn’t revolting! Matilda the Musical extends at the Cambridge Theatre, with tickets now available for performances through 26 May 2024. Book Matilda the Musical tickets on London Theatre.

Based on the Roald Dahl novel of the same name, Matilda the Musical follows the titular child as she uses her powerful mind to help save the day at her school, Crunchem Hall. While at school, she forms a strong bond with her teacher, Miss Honey, as well as recalling vivid stories to her librarian Mrs Phelps.

After a world premiere in Stratford-upon-Avon, Matilda opened in the West End in 2011, winning seven Oliviers. The Matilda musical was recently adapted into a film, starring Emma Thompson as Miss Trunchbull. Find out more about Matilda the Musical in London.

They’re joined by Lauren Byrne as Miss Honey, Elliot Harper as Miss Trunchbull, Landi Oshinowo as Mrs Phelps, and Rakesh Boury and Amy Ellen Richardson as Mr and Mrs Wormwood. We spoke to Byrne and Harper about starring in Matilda.
