Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical JR.

Featuring over 50 Berkshire County and beyond elementary, middle and high school students.

Get ready for an electrifying adventure as Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical JR. takes the stage at The Colonial Theatre in Pittsfield! Join Matilda, a clever and courageous girl with extraordinary gifts, as she takes a stand against the odds. From her cruel parents to her tyrannical headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, Matilda shows that even the smallest voices can spark big changes. With her wit, intelligence and remarkable courage, Matilda inspires her classmates and her kindhearted teacher, Miss Honey, to stand up for what’s right and proves that “sometimes, you have to be a little bit naughty” to rewrite your story.

Perfect for families and kids aged 7 and up and filled with catchy songs, high-energy dance numbers and unforgettable characters, Matilda The Musical JR. is a gleefully witty and inspiring story of resilience, bravery and girl power that will have audiences of all ages cheering for the “revolting children.” Matilda is ready to teach the grown-ups a lesson—are you ready to join the rebellion?
