Matilda on Broadway @ Sam S. Shubert Theatre NYC 2013

Recently, Allan and I went to go see Matilda on Broadway and it was FANTASTIC! It was so charming and so unforgettable, I may have even felt a glisten of tear welling up at one point. I grew up watching the movie and I too, stayed up under the covers wishing I had magical powers to punish the adults who were so selfish and unfair. When I was a tiny little one, I recorded this movie <-- on top of an old VHS tape and watched it over and over again. The musical was just as spectacular, not just because of Roald Dahl's genius script, but because of the amazing actors, set design, and music. The show revived my love and affection for dear old Matilda and I would watch it again a hundred times more. I still hear their tunes playing in my head.


Everyone is born, but not everyone is born the same. Some will grow to be butchers, or bakers, or candlestick makers. Some will only be really good at making Jell-O salad. One way or another, though, every human being is unique, for better or for worse. -Roald Dahl
