Matilda musical description

The musical is based upon the novel created for the kids by Roald Dahl. The songs and music were made by Tim Minchin, while Dennis Kelly adapted the scenario. The West End premier of the performance came only after its trial run in 2010-2011. It lasted for twelve weeks and was staged at Stratford-upon-Avon. Thus, in 2011, there was the West End version, which took place at Cambridge Theatre. A bit later, in 2013, the audience saw the Broadway production at Shubert Theatre.

All the versions have turned to be extremely popular. That’s why the musical received several awards, including seven Oliviers obtained in 2012 for the Best Musical. It was the biggest number of such awards received by one show. The following year, the performance managed to get five more Tony Awards, among which there were one for the Best Book of a Musical. The musical is still famous enough. You can see the performances in London and in New York. Besides, the touring versions were also created, such as Australian and the US ones.
