Rebellion is nigh in this gleefully witty ode to the anarchy of childhood and the power of imagination! This 60-minute adaptation for middle school students features plenty of roles and all the hit songs in versions that your students can sing. The story of a girl who dreams of a better life and the children she inspires will have audiences rooting for the "revolting children" who are out to teach the grown-ups a lesson. Matilda has astonishing wit, intelligence... and special powers! Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, though, as the school's mean headmistress hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don't abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal parts - and could be the school pupils' saving grace! Packed with high-energy dance numbers and catchy songs, children and adults alike will be thrilled and delighted by the story of the special little girl with an extraordinary imagination.
