Matilda The Musical has, over the years, become a timeless classic in London's West End. It has captivated audiences, both young and old, with its endearing story of resilience, wit, love, and the transformative power of knowledge. It is like going back to a piece of your childhood again. Playing at the prestigious Cambridge Theatre, this delightful production, adapted from Roald Dahl's beloved children's book, is sure to mesmerise you with its talented cast, heart-warming story, amazing set design, and a soundtrack that you’ll be humming long after the final curtain call.

User reviews
Lyn Gardner,
The Guardian5/5
“If anything, it is actually richer than Dahl's novel. It captures all the original's delicious nastiness, particularly in depicting Matilda's school, Crunchem Hall (motto: "children are maggots"), run by the fearsome Miss Trunchbull, but it also celebrates the solace of books and the transforming powers of the imagination.”
Sam Marlowe,
Time Out4/5
“With hindsight, Kelly and Minchin's musical, born of the 1988 novel by that master of the splendidly grotesque Roald Dahl, is a little too long and, dramatically, a tad wayward. But like the curly-haired little girl in the famous nursery rhyme, when it is good, it is very, very good. And it's even better when it's horrid.”
Charles Spencer,
The Telegraph5/5
“Matthew Warchus’s thrilling, warm-hearted production, exuberantly designed by Rob Howell and with pin-sharp choreography by Peter Darling, constantly combines comedy with a sense of wonder.”

Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular is an absolute must-see. The show is bursting with energy, breathtaking acrobatics, and powerful live vocals that bring the beloved songs to life in a completely new way. The performers are incredibly talented, and the immersive circus atmosphere makes you feel part of the magic from the very first moment. It’s emotional, uplifting, and visually stunning a perfect night out in London for anyone who loves music, spectacle, and unforgettable entertainment.
Simply WOW LOVE IT!!!

My daughter has been wanting to see this since she was 11. Knowing all the beautiful music and seeing it performed with such talent and enthusiasm was a really electric experience. We loved seeing the show so much. We thought the singing and dancing was outstanding!
