The Royal Shakespeare Company’s Matilda The Musical is set to continue its tradition of excellence as it tours across the UK and Ireland in 2025. Following its sell-out success in the previous tour, this incredible production is heading to theatres from London to cities across the UK, offering theatre lovers everywhere the chance to experience the phenomenon that has captivated audiences for over a decade.
Having been performed in over 100 cities across 17 countries, Matilda has proven to be much more than just a show—it’s a cultural event that resonates with people from all walks of life. At its core, Matilda tells the story of a young girl who, despite the challenges she faces at home and school, uses her extraordinary intellect and imagination to rewrite her story. The themes of resilience, self-expression, and empowerment are central to the musical, making it a story that is both universal and timeless.
What sets Matilda apart from other musicals is its balance of theatrical spectacle with deep emotional resonance. Tim Minchin’s original score, filled with humor, heart, and power, is one of the most memorable in recent musical history. From the infectious opening number “Naughty” to the gut-wrenching “When I Grow Up,” the music perfectly complements the story’s themes and character arcs.
The UK tour offers audiences an opportunity to experience this beloved show in new locations and intimate settings. Whether in a big city like Birmingham or a smaller town, the tour ensures that Matilda’s magic will reach theatres across the nation. The cast, featuring both returning and new faces, continues to bring new energy to each performance, keeping the show fresh and exciting for both new audiences and long-time fans.
For families, theatre buffs, and newcomers to the stage, Matilda offers an experience like no other. The opportunity to see the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production in your hometown is a rare and exciting occasion. You won’t want to miss this. Get your tickets now at matildathemusical.com.
