Customer Reviews for Matilda - The Musical

Absolutely spectacular,!!!!
Just came home from this musical. We were literally in the back row of the lower level up against the back wall. But we could hear perfectly! These kids as well as whole company didn't miss a trick! They nailed it! The blend of voice was incredible, these kids danced and sang their hearts out and it showed!! timing was impeccable ! The male actor playing Miss Trench bowl was perfect! Totally worth what we paid for it!!!
Fabulous
Very creative and fun. Great introduction to theater for the next generation
Fantastic Acting
The acting and singing was great. The cast of children perfect, but from the upper level, we missed 80-90% of understanding what was being said. I originally thought it was me but others said similar things. I would not pay to see this play if you have to sit in the upper level. It may have been because of the cast of children's young voices but they did their job perfectly.
Good to be back at the theater!
Interesting story, the actors were energetic and their enthusiasm contagious. The set changes creativily done. Our seats were lower level center 1/3 of the way back. Unfortunately missed most of the dialog and song lyrics. Very loud with the music overpowering the voices. Thought it was just me but others around us said the same at intermission Wondering if the sound system could be recalibrated for the space?
Amazing children
Unfortunately, we have to agree with another reviewer - we were in lower loge and couldn't understand 80% of what was being sung/said. I admire the acting, especially the girl playing Matilda - amazing! However, we left at intermission due to the frustration. We love our seats and have not had this problem before.
No Live Orchestra
There was no live orchestra for this show. The soundtrack they played instead was deafening. I could barely understand what the cast was singing.
