One month until Matilda JR hits town

Look out Haslemere, here she comes! The Next Generation's production of Matilda The Musical JR is on its way. Adapted by Dennis Kelly and Tim Minchin from the book by Roald Dahl, the show has won numerous awards and is sure to be a runaway success.

Matilda, a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers, lives with cruel parents who find her to be a nuisance, a lousy little worm, and a bore. When Matilda enters her first term at school, she captures the attention of Miss Honey, a kind teacher, and the two form a wonderful friendship. Unfortunately, the school is ruled by a tempestuous and mean headmistress named Miss Trunchbull, who hates children and delivers cruel and unjust punishments to all her charges. Matilda is determined to change her story, but will her cleverness and courage be enough to withstand the reign of Miss Trunchbull?

Don't miss your chance to find out. Matilda and her pals will be at The Royal School, Farnham Lane, Haslemere at 7:30 pm on Thursday 20 and Friday 21 June and again at both 2:30 pm and 7:30 pm on Saturday 22 June. Tickets are available through our friends at the Haslemere Hall Box Office on 01428 642161 or follow the link https://tickets.haslemerehall.co.uk/sales/genres/theatre/matilda---the-musical-jr
