May 18, Melanie Page Tim Minchin: Roald Dahls Matilda - The Musical it really liked it. Although I love the story and the idea of an intelligent girl who sticks up for herself, I'm always put off by how violent Trunchbull is, the fact that she gets away with it for most of the story, and how Miss Honey stands by watching as it happens. Jan 07, Kaylynn rated it really liked it. There are a lot of differences and similarities between the book and the movie. But the story of young Matilda Wormwood is one that I feel all young readers from ages 6 and up based on vocabulary should hear! Jun 03, Malcolm rated it liked it. It's an enchanting musical but the poetry does not transfer to the page well. Oct 14, Kelsey Burnette rated it it was amazing. Such a great story and perfect for a musical!

Tim Minchin · THE MATILDA THE MUSICAL STORY T im Minchin sings a Tim Minchin: Roald Dahls Matilda - The Musical to his wife in his current show. But she loves it now. Minchin — a wild- haired Aussie troubadour who in won the best newcomer award in Edinburgh — seems to be a paid-up member of the new rationalist comedy movement. The Richard Dawkins of funny, he also performs a nine-minute poem called Storma broadside against new-age credulity that has been gleefully appropriated by humanist groups. Minchin didn't take up comedy until his late 20s. Before that, he was a jobbing actor and composer working on various "pro-am or co-op" theatre projects in Australia. Even Tim Minchin: Roald Dahls Matilda - The Musical, as he embarks on a second UK tour of his hit show Ready for This? The likelihood of that increased recently, with a summons from Tim Minchin: Roald Dahls Matilda - The Musical Royal Shakespeare Company to write a musical version of Roald Dahl's novel Matilda, about a rebellious little girl with psychokinetic powers. At first, Minchin thought this was a joke: a decade previously, he had failed to secure the rights for a children's theatre production of the novel in Perth. You can see the attraction — and why the RSC thought Minchin was the man for the job. On stage, kohl-eyed and barefoot, he comes across like a mischievous child. Matilda, he says, plays to "the classic kids' fantasy that one day they just turn up and kick everyone's arse". There's also the fact that Minchin's terrific music and Cole Porter-ish wordplay cry out for the big stage. This is the most important thing I've ever done. Does all this excitement represent a release from some of the frustrations of standup? After all, Minchin's serious songs he always slips one or two into his shows are as effective as his funny ones, and he talks about wanting to record "a non- comic album" soon. Are the chuckle shackles beginning to smart? That's what Matilda represents to him. In the last year, he says, "the comedy's taken off to a different level, where it's a bit scary. It's like, 'If this keeps going, it's going to be life-changing. And he walks right through it. And I get to thrash the shit out of it every night. It's ridiculously cool. Topics Comedy.

Tim Minchin: Roald Dahl's Matilda - The Musical | Matilda the Musical is a stage musical based on the children's novel of the same name by Roald Dahl.

  • Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones
    HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

Additionally, it is our philosophy that amidst a methodical world, a child’s heart always be enlightened by wonderment and enhanced by creativity. SPECIAL THANKS go to… ■ All of our volunteer interns for their extra special attention to our campers and devoted efforts to our productions. ■ The Broward Center for the Performing Arts and The Aventura Arts and Cultural Center’s staff for their constant help and expertise. ■ Jill Kratish for making this all possible. ■ The campers’ parents/guardians for letting us “borrow” your talented children. ■ My staff for their unending dedication and hard work.

The eight-part series follows the hugely talented but damaged 40-year-old Lucky Flynn (Tim Minchin), and fiercely intelligent, tough-as-nails teenager Meg Adams (Milly Alcock) on a life-changing road trip across the beautiful Australian outback, with more than a few bumps along the way. When he learns that his mother only has days to live, Lucky sets off in a hire car to drive the 4000km from Sydney to Perth to say goodbye to her, taking with him his only cherished possession in the world – a battered and scarred upright piano. Meg is running away from her small town family in search of a better life, and has plenty of scars and secrets of her own. Each on their own journey, Lucky and Meg’s lives come crashing together on a long stretch of the Australian highway. When it becomes apparent that Lucky has no money and no transport, and Meg needs Lucky in order to go unnoticed as a teenager on the run, they join forces in a quest to get a precious piano from one side of the country to the other.

  • NEW TIM MINCHIN DATES SET Saturday 20 February & Sunday 21 February
    MEDIA RELEASE: Monday, 8 February 2021 NEW TIM MINCHIN DATES SET Saturday 20 February & Sunday 21 February We are thrilled to announce new Perth Festival dates for Tim Minchin with West Australian Symphony Orchestra in King’s Park on Saturday 20 February and Sunday 21 February. In rescheduling Minchin’s world-premiere special performance of his brand-new album, Apart Together, we thank all ticketholders for their patience and understanding as we worked through the issues. Perth Festival 2021 now runs from 15 February to 14 March. Thanks to everyone for their patience as we navigated a lockdown together and rearranged the Festival for 2021! All ticket holders are being contacted regarding revised dates and times for their shows. This may take a few days longer than usual. Please note, there is no need to call or email the box office. We will provide further updates as soon as they become available. The two nights under the stars in Kings Park with Minchin, Western Australia’s very own global superstar, and some of the State’s finest musicians promises to be a Festival highlight. Minchin said: ‘When that poor young security guard tested positive, I had only been out of quarantine for a couple of days, and my first instinct was to go, bugger this, and just hop on a plane and get back to my kids. I hesitated though, because as a man who loves a bakery, I know a solid number of consecutive days of doughnuts is possible. ‘And as a friend of Iain Grandage and Perth Festival, I knew the expertise and will would be there to try and reschedule very quickly, should those doughnuts line up.
