About The Show

Following on from the recent success of Mary Poppins JR in July, Stage School delighted to be bringing yet another musical to life for the first time. 

 

Matilda JR. is the spirited, witty and heart-warming story of an extraordinary little girl with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind who dares to take a stand. Full of bold characters, show-stopping numbers and high-energy ensemble moments, Matilda JR. celebrates the power of imagination, friendship and standing up for what’s right. 

 

With music and lyrics by Australia’s own Tim Minchin and a Tony Award-winning book by Dennis Kelly, this junior adaptation offers a fantastic range of roles for singers, dancers and actors to shine - from cheeky school kids and outrageous grown-ups to the powerful ensembles that drive the action. This show has captivated audiences worldwide with its mix of humour, high-energy dance numbers and unforgettable songs including Naughty, Revolting Children and When I Grow Up to name a few.
