Theatre South Playhouse in Dr. Phillips is proud to present the professional return of Roald Dahl’s “Matilda: the Musical,” November 2-19, 2023. After a sold out run in 2019, the hit musical returns to the Playhouse with a fresh take on this popular story told in a new light in our immersive space.
Based on the classic children’s book, Matilda is the story of an extraordinary little girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and challenge those above her, changing her own destiny. The timeless story, combined with Roald Dahl’s signature wit and naughtiness, makes this an irresistible musical for all audiences.
Directed by Hillary Brook (Urinetown, School of Rock, Be More Chill, The Sound of Music) with choreography by Sterling Lovett (Urinetown, The Prom, The Sound of Music, School of Rock) and musical direction by Dragomir Page (Mean Girls Jr), Matilda features an outstanding cast of professional performers – including local favorites Jason Blackwood and Sarah Lee Dobbs (Matilda) as “The Wormwoods,” Jonny Jones (Urinetown, The Prom) as “The Trunchbull,” Saadya Byrd (Rumors, Spelling Bee) as “Mrs. Phelps,” and newcomers Margaret Place as “Miss Honey” and introducing Miya Montague as “Matilda.” The production will inspire and delight as told in its own way in the Dr. Phillips 99 seat black box theater.
