Matilda: The Musical (PG) (Captioned Screening)

Family Film Club

Matilda The Musical

Roald Dahl’s cheeky little heroine leaps from the West End stage to Family Film Club in this charming musical.

Young newcomer Alisha Weir takes on the role of Matilda Wormwood – an undiscovered genius who wants nothing more than to learn. But when Matilda is sent to the local school, presided over by the terrifying headteacher Miss Trunchbull, all sorts of magic and mischief ensue.

Featuring Stephen Graham and Andrea Riseborough as Matilda's neglectful parents, Lashana Lynch as the inspirational Miss Honey, and an absolute show stopper of a performance from Emma Thompson as the villainous Miss Trunchbull.
