Matilda the Musical (Touring) Tickets

Great show!! Have been recommending the show to friends!

If only the diction was as good as the energy in the show. The producers should have sited the show in the USA and forget about trying to duplicate the king's English. It's far more important to hear the dialogue. Unless you know the whole story forget about the story line and concentrate on listening to the music. Later in the show the adults do give a clue as to what is happening.

I took my 14 year old granddaughter to see Matilda. It has been our Christmas gift from my daughter. Beyond creating grandmother/granddaughter memories the quality of the performers especially the children was outstanding. It is a bit of a sad story but luckily it has a happy ending. My granddaughter and I can't say enough about this musical and would highly recommend everyone seeing it especially if there is a child or children you can bring.

Too much creative liberty was taken to make the musical entertaining. Male actor for head mistress and Matilda in this production was annoying. - Sorry - spent big $$ for a bit disappointment. The person at TIME magazine who called it the play of the year is confusing to me. Very misleading.

Saw the last showing of Matilda at the Shubert Theatre. We were up in the balcony, high up in the balcony. The stage seemed far away, but once the show started, the distance melted away. The story line stayed true to the book, but had enough twists and turns to make it interesting. The acting, singing, and stage were simply amazing. Every character was perfect. This was great entertainment for my son (10 years old), my wife, and me. A word of caution, smaller sensitive kids might get upset with how Matilda is treated. Like many of Dahl's tales, it has its dark side. Other than that, I would recommend this show to anyone and the Shubert is a great venue.

I somehow managed to grow up never having read or seen Matilda before, so when we heard it was coming to New Haven, my friend and I jumped at the chance! I LOVED it! A great show with great songs, actors, and everything!

Amazing show with an awesome soundtrack! The talent of the kid actors is off the charts, though to be fair it can sometimes be difficult to understand high-pitched British accents when singing :) The set design was very well done by the Royal Shakespeare Company, and fit the "feeling" of a Roald Dahl story perfectly. This book was one of my favorites of Dahl's when I was younger, and the translation to stage definitely did not disappoint. I brought my daughter and her friend, two 4th-grade girls, with me - neither of them had read the book yet, and both of them LOVED it. My daughter has not stopped watching and re-watching YouTube videos at home with scenes and songs from the show, and it's been almost a week since we went. Far and away her two favorite songs were "When I Grow Up" and "School Song". The finale's reprise of "Naughty Children" will definitely have you singing it on the way out of the theater, though. I felt like the ending of the show wrapped up a bit quickly for people who had never read the story, but a minor complaint for an overall EXCELLENT production!

Went with my four adult granddaughters and one great granddaughter! A terrific night out, I'm sure lasting memories. A tad long for the 5 year old, but she didn't take her eyes off the stage. The actress playing Matilda had a lot to do, and did so admirably. Ms. Trunchbull was outstanding.

We took our grandchildren to see Matilda the Musical at the Schubert in New Haven on Saturday. Everyone loved everything about it. We thought the story was wonderful. The acting was great. We loved the music. I thought the words were a little hard to understand in some of the songs, but this did not take away from our enjoyment of the show. Please read my comments about the seats below.

I don't know if it's because I sat in the balcony but, I had a very hard time understanding the cast say their words and sing their songs. I'm not sure if it was because of the sound system or the cast's heavy English accents. Otherwise, it would have been great.

The show was fabulous. I especially appreciated the strong choreography and stage presence of the child actors.

I saw Matilda at the Shubert last week and was disappointed. The show did not live up to my expectations. Although there were a few good musical numbers, the plot was weak and the acting was mediocre. I also believe that my dissatisfaction was greatly enhanced by a poor sound system at the Shubert in New Haven. Despite a very expensive renovation, the sound system still is poor.

What a great show, you don't want to miss it!! And my 8 year old absolutely loved it too.

This is the best show I have seen in a long time. It was a nice mixture of music and comedy. The children were very professional and i enjoyed watching them throughout the whole performance. The adults were cast well too. all in all I had the best time on Sunday afternoon seeing Matilda at the Shubert in New Haven.

We left at intermission. Even the kids were bored.

It was a great show! I was so impressed by the performance of young actors. They were amazing. Everyone in the show was fantastic! Loved every minute of this show and all that were with me felt the same.

Such talent and beautiful voices. My 4 year old loved it. Now we listen to the cd in the car every day. Would highly recommend. Fun for all ages.

With a focus on negative behavior for children and by their main caretaker (the headmistress), this is not a play most children would enjoy or should even see. Some youngsters left the play in disgust and that was totally understandable.

This was one of the worst plays my daughter and I have ever attended. I would not advise anyone going to bring children under 15 years old. I'm afraid children younger than that will become afraid to attend school . This play I believed showed parental abuse, educational abuse and total emotional abuse.

Matilda the Musical was an amazing production...loved every minute of it.
