This May, Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical, is coming to the Royal River Community Players (RRCP) Playhouse from May 17-26, 2024. Under the direction of Janie Downey, the musical is based on Roald Dahl's beloved novel, and features a book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin.

What did our critic think of MATILDA THE MUSICAL by Act Three Productions?

The Olivier Award-winning musical 'Matilda,' based on the beloved children’s book by Roald Dahl, is back on its feet and continues to tour Asia and the Middle East next. Its creative team and many of its original cast and crew thought they’d be back on the road in the latter part of 2020, but the pandemic has kept them a little longer.

The lineup  includes six beloved and blockbuster titles, three locally conceptualized and constructed London Proud productions that will go on to shine across the country, four Ontario premieres, and the always sold-out Jeans ‘n Classics concert series. Learn more about the full season here!
