"Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical"
For its fiftieth-first summer production, the Signal Mountain Playhouse is thrilled to present "Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical.”
Roald Dahl’s works include “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” which became the musical, “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” “James and the Giant Peach,” “The BFD,” and “The Fantastic Mr. Fox.”
Matilda is a smart little girl, wise beyond her years, who figures out how to have a great life despite her tacky parents and a mean headmistress. A wonderful teacher at her school rescues Matilda from her loneliness. Another thing to know about Matilda is that she has some special powers that she puts to work when she needs to.
Directing is Garry Posey with Mike Lees as musical director; Marcia Smith as accompanist; Lindsay Fussell as choreographer; and Nicholas Hartline as conductor for the Playhouse Orchestra.
Leading performers include Bea Burbank, as Matilda; Roger Cass and Valerie Duke as Bea’s parents, the Wormwoods; Dani Clark as the awful Trunchbull; and Maddie Meier as the lovely Miss Honey.
Show dates are Friday and Saturday evenings in July – July 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, and 30. Curtain is at 8 pm, but the box office opens at 6 pm for those who wish to buy tickets and place lawn chairs early. (It’s recommended that patrons bring lawn chairs for comfort.) Tickets are sold at the door only and run $5 for kids 12 and under and $15 for all others. The Playhouse accepts cash or checks only, please.
