Ronald Dahl’s classic, Matilda comes to life in Matilda, the Musical at the Walnut Street Theatre! This story of magic, determination, perseverance and imagination is particularly entertaining for audience members of all ages.

We thoroughly enjoyed the show and and left with the important message that anyone can change their destiny as long as you believe in yourself and be the best “you” you can be! As well as the power of reading books!
