"I bought the tickets for the play as a gift for my boyfriend because I knew it was a dream of his to have this experience. However, I ended up being surprised and enchanted by how beautiful and magical the play was. The interaction and the way the actors entered through the back doors made us feel like part of the setting and the story being told. I highly recommend it because every second was worth it"

"I am 71 years old but still I enjoyed forming words using vertical, horizontal alphabets. What can I say about the actors and their performance? Each and everyone on the stage was performing as if he was born to be that character. Matilda was really an unbelievable experience!"
