Matilda is the story of an extraordinary little girl with extraordinary powers.

Swamplight Theatre

The daughter of abusive parents, Matilda finds refuge in library books, which she reads quickly and in creating her own stories. Things are no better at school, where Matilda also must face a tyrannical and cruel headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, who believes in Crunchem Hall’s motto: “Bambinatum est Magitum,” or “Children are Maggots.” She finds companionship in her teacher, Miss Honey, though well-intentioned, is shy and fragile. Brave little Matilda knows she has to stand up against the adults in her world, and in doing so, discovers her own remarkable powers. Matilda’s bravery teaches Miss Honey and her classmates an important lesson -- that even though life can be hard, “nobody but me is gonna change my story” so “sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty.”Directed by Vicki Jarrell FreemanMusical Direction By Wendy Kinchen SavarinoCast List Matilda -Tianna Miller and Henrie DelaneyMrs. Wormwood~ Lorna Culmone BourgeoisMr. Wormwood~ Steven RushingMs. Honey~ Chloe VallotAgatha Trunchbull~ Kendel SmithRudolpho~ Josiah RogersBruce - Matthew PickrellNigel - Cooper AymondLavender~ Henrie Delaney and Rachel AymondMichael Wormwood - Brock WiggensEscapologist - Josiah RogersAcrobat~ Ginna CrouseDoctor - Rebecca LockwoodMrs. Phelps - Karla DouglasEnsemble: Rachel Aymond, Jess Bankston, Anna Berthone, Carter Cortez, Tallulah Delaney, Bella Delpidio, Cooper Digby, Mikayla Douglas, Harper Fontenot, Ava Greichgauer, Calise Henley, Saylor Henley, T Quintin Johnson, Bode McDaniel, Madeline Smith and Harmony Wood.Russian Mobsters: Patrick Bates, Michael Douglas and Mark Freeman
