IT’S TIME TO GET A LITTLE BIT NAUGHTY, NEWCASTLE.

Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, and the Tony Award-winning masterpiece, Roald Dahl's Matilda The Musical JR. revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life.

Step inside Crunchem Hall Primary School (aka. Hunter Theatre, Broadmeadow), where Matilda - a brilliant little girl with astonishing wit and imagination - discovers she may have powers far greater than anyone ever realised. Along the way she finds friendship, courage, and kindness in the beautiful Miss Honey, and goes head-to-head with the tyrant headmistress herself, Miss Trunchbull.

With book by Dennis Kelly and the razor-sharp, riotous score by Tim Minchin, this worldwide smash hit storms onto the stage packed with rebellion, chaos, courage, heart, and plenty of revolting fun.

Featuring a cast of Newcastle’s most extraordinary young performers, this fearless production is a wild theatrical uprising for anyone who has ever dreamed of standing up, speaking out, and being a little bit naughty.
